My idea is to have your overlay with live ebuilds and a tool to make a release out of it. All the messy stuff remains in pkg_setup/src_unpack all you need to do then is to iterate the workdir and make tarballs of what you find there. Sounds good enough? lu -- Luca Barbato Gentoo/linux Gentoo/PPC http://dev.gentoo.org/~lu_zero -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
