Feel free to file a bug with a patch. Remember that catalyst isn't really targeted for end-users (how many times do you hear that about a project) but instead Gentoo developers. We release it mostly for transparency reasons and because of our social contract. That being said, we do work bug reports, especially ones with patches. > > The only thing resembling the file name above is the source_subpath > > setting, but I'm not sure why that would get turned into a .tar.bz2 file > > name by catalyst when catalyst itself clearly expects a directory name. > > > > The "change to the name of a .tar.bz2" bit still puzzles me and I'm not > sure it's desirable behavior. It is. It is all due to seedcache and how it works. It first searches for a directory, then for a tarball. That's not saying that there isn't a bug in there somewhere, but the design is to use a directory first when options=seedcache and a tarball only otherwise for all targets *except* livecd-stage2. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead x86 Architecture Team Games - Developer Gentoo Linux
