[gentoo-dev] Add USE_EXPAND for apache
Hi all, the current behaviour of the apache ebuild -- chosing built-in modules based on /etc/apache2/apache-builtin-mods -- is very aweful, especially for binary packages. Therefore, i would like to add APACHE2_MODULES and APACHE2_MPMS to USE_EXPAND. I have already converted the ebuild in my local overlay and it works fine. Currently, there are over 60 modules available in apache. Out of these, a good default would look like this IMO: APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic auth_digest authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack version vhost_alias" If noone objects, I will make these changes to base/make.defaults and commit the new ebuild during the next week.

Dear Gentoo Devs and Users, The time has finally come for me to resign from Gentoo. I've been meaning to do it for many months now, but the logistics took a little bit of time. Effective Monday, Nov. 26, I will no longer consider myself an official Gentoo developer. Before then I will make commits to two or so packages for which James Rowe is the official maintainer and I was his proxy. Justin Bronder (jsbronder) has agreed to take over the proxy maintainership for them. I've been here a long time and I've made many many friends (and, I suppose, a few enemies). For both, I'm grateful. There are too many people to thank -- you all know who you are :P. I'll be subscribed to this list for a while, and of course, I'll still be on IRC in various channels. For those of you wishing to maintain email contact with me, I can be reached at: seemant (at) kulleen (dot) org I hope that the fun in Gentoo will return soon. It certainly seems like there's been a positive tide turning as of late, so I leave with optimism. Be well, everyone. Thanks, Seemant -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Really, you should have gone for a GLEP for this -- as previous metadata GLEPs have shown, it doesn't take long to go through the GLEP process and it results in substantially better decisions. The proposal as you implemented it isn't perfect -- in particular, the way you've done it isn't an optimal solution (think version operators and so on -- how are they to be handled?). And what about referring to other named USE flags, either globally or those associated with a particular package? Please revert the commits and go back and follow the proper process here. Whilst it's nice to see things I suggested years ago finally getting somewhere, it'd be better to see it done to its full potential. -- Ciaran McCreesh signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Thank you for taking the time to announce it to gentoo-dev since I haven't had the time with my family being here for the holidays to do such. I'll take care of the e-mail to gentoo-dev-announce though. I'm not asking for an extra overhead of 'bureaucracy' (write specs, mailling @dev, send to the council, etc.) but a bit more of communication would be appreciated: All the above is completely unnecessary and I would be happy to discuss details with you off list. Is the feature ready to be used? Is there any kind of documentation (aside of DTD)? It will replace use.desc? Well the first question you answered yourself. You linked to a post I wrote describing live commits I made to the tree using this feature. As far as documentation, you will find that in your Gentoo Developer's Handbook [3], but most likely you'll say "But Doug, I don't see anything on these new changes." That's because the new changes have not been updated yet, again with the holiday's about it takes a little bit to get things done. Once the documentation is updated I had planned on sending an e-mail to gentoo-dev and gentoo-dev-announce. As far as replacing use.desc, that is doubtful but a possibility of replacing use.local.desc is within consideration. However this would be in the distant future and we would have to see how the new features are used and evolve. Thanks.

It will replace use.desc? the idea is really great IMHO and the implementation is pretty straight forward. thanks to flameeyes and cardoe for putting their heads together. now this needs to be extended and made mandatory for all ebuilds. in order to reduce the workload the global useflags should only be documented once - while still allowing ebuilds to extend (or even override?) the global description. great stuff all around. happy hacking Thilo signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
