Why not use a function in pkg_setup as suggested earlier and pass each path component as $1, $2, etc. Then the ebuild itself doesn't actually care about the storage format of FONT_CONF, whether it's a bash array or a standard string using IFS. That gives you the luxury of changing it as you like without having to change any ebuilds later. pkg_setup() { append_font_conf "path1" "path2" } Thanks Roy -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
