The warnings are intended to teach (by pointing to documentation) rather than just moaning and groaning. And while I'll agree that there are always edge cases and autocorrection will never be 100%, I must say that the kinds of errors I'm correcting aren't that hard. Besides, esyntaxer isn't something your run and forget; it is *not* a replacement for peer review by good ole' humans. :) Nathan -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDK1b12QTTR4CNEQARAmMkAJ0QSZ+p1SoImPQEIRzM3iq5BwaxtACgghKH ReLKbUMlgPNGIch77olSWvQ= =2OgF -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list

Actually, I already have prepared a ruby script that I use to find violators to the syntax (like enewuser with /bin/false and cp called with extra options). It's on http://dev.gentoo.org/~flameeyes/ruby-checker.tbz2 . It's not complete, but it works when it comes to checking for these simple cases. I don't trust automatic correction, false positives can always happen, currently my way to proceed with such problems is opening a big bug and poking maintainers to fix them :) -- Diego "Flameeyes" Pettenò Gentoo Developer - http://dev.gentoo.org/~flameeyes/ (Gentoo/FreeBSD, Video, Gentoo/AMD64, Sound, PAM) pgpHbARht5xPg.pgp Description: PGP signature

I guess knowing where the meeting will be held might help attendance a little... #gentoo-alt it is! --Kito -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list

Yes, I'm aware of the overlaps with repoman, and no this isn't a duplication of work. Anyhow, I would be very keen on any ideas you may have for checks that can be added to esyntaxer that would make ebuilds more agreeable on 'alternate' platforms. Any suggestions, feedback, etc are greatly appreciated.

Greetings, On behalf of the g/fbsd and macos teams, I'd like to call a meeting for all members of the gentoo-alt projects (and anyone else who would like to attend) on Monday September 26 at 19:00 UTC. Items on the Agenda so far: * Naming and categorization of alt-arch system packages * Merging patches in the main tree * Additional Repoman checks (cp -[a,d], /bin/false, etc.) * Project page content (tech notes, tasks data, active devs, etc) * Portage rewrite - alternate prefix installs(!), moving/adding platform dependent code to loadable modules * Alt-project roadmap Flame-on. --Kito -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
