[gentoo-dev] Remember to update eclass/ and profiles/ in your tree before committing anything!

[Diego Elio Pettenò]

Just a friendly reminder that you should update profiles/ and eclass/
before committing anything to the tree, so that you don't end up
committing packages with either broken dependencies or fetching the
wrong SRC_URI, if they were changed since you last ran a cvs up.

Repoman will ignore the synced tree both when verifying the dependencies
and when creating the Manifests, and the gnome.org.eclass has recently
changed its default tarball suffix which is causing the issue at hand.

Thank you for the attention,

How about making the check more automated, similarly to how metadata.dtd
is refetched every 7 days? Is it possible with CVS?

My point is that it's really easy to forget, even with the best intentions.

We could make repoman check for it.
