Subject: [gentoo-dev] Ebuild questions
Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2003 21:49:32 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <auto-000058096435@remt19.cluster1.charter.net> (raw)

If this is the wrong list for this question please tell me where to move it 
but it doesn't seem to fit gentoo-user or any of the others.

I want to do an ebuild for some programs but have never done one.  I've read 
the Gentoo docs on ebuilds and eclasses and the man pages for ebuild.  
However, in looking at some ebuilds - noticably flight gear and wine-cvs I 
see variables such a $PV defined.  The docs mention $P but not $PV or other 
variables.  I've browsed some of the eclasses trying to find the definitions 
and haven't been successful.  Where are these explained.  Are there any more 
docs I can read?

Thanks.
