Not that I know of for fetching, but for the version, that sed seems
awfully complex. I'd probably use bash substitution like this instead:
IPTVERINS=$(best_version net-firewall/iptables)
# Strip revision (safe, since nothing else has a hyphen followed by 'r')
IPTVERINS=${IPTVERINS%-r*}
# Strip category
IPTVERINS=${IPTVERINS#*/}
I previously brought up the idea of a way to access portage's
CATEGORY/PN/PV parser from within ebuilds, but there didn't seem to be a
whole lot of interest.
Thanks,
Donnie
