[gentoo-dev] [RFC] EAPI

2005-08-26 Thread Kristian Benoit

[gentoo-dev] [patch] config interactiveness fix.

2005-07-14 Thread Kristian Benoit
Actually, when executing pkg_config with "ebuild some/ebuild.ebuild config", the stdin/stdout are broken cause we are not writing to a terminal. I fixed it with this patch: diff -uNpr portage-2.0.51.19/pym/portage.py portage-2.0.51.19-config/pym/portage.py --- portage-2.0.51.19/pym/portage.py

I'm trying to add a new command to ebuild (preconfig) for packages like busybox that has to be configured prior to compile and that would be a cannot really use USE as it probably have undreads of USE that does not yet exist. That new command would be called between src_unpack and src_compile and
