Hi,
I'm the author of REXML. I'm also an extremely new Gentoo user. (uptime =>
3:54pm up 1 day, 22:01, 3 users).
Apparently, I rsynced a couple of days too late, because I just submitted a
Portage package for REXML (bug #4072), at about the same time the Aaron's
version was unmasked.
I'm not sure how you want to handle this. Specifically, Aaron, if you're
going to continue maintaining the portage script, you'll be interested to
know that I've added support to the install script specifically for Portage.
I've added two new arguments:
-d (--destdir)
-n (--noop)
They do what you'd expect: 'ruby bin/install.rb -d ${D}' will cause REXML to
install itself relative to ${D}; EG:
ruby bin/install.rb -d /tmp => /tmp/usr/lib/ruby/site-ruby/1.6/rexml/...
- --noop may or may not be useful; I added it to help debug with adding the -d
(and a -t) flags. Basically, it is orthoganal to "emerge --pretend" -- it
tells you what it would do, but doesn't do it. In any case, the --destdir
option should obviate the need for the patch.
Another difference between Aaron's package and mine is that I went ahead and
installed the documentation via dohtml. I need to add some dodocs for the
README and the licenses. In any case, feel free to merge my ebuilds with
your's Aaron.
I'm sorry for the duplicate work. Just let me know if you want me to maintain
the ebuild; otherwise, let me know if there's anything I can do to tweak the
REXML install to help you out.
Thanks.
