[proaudio] ANN: changes to live (cvs/svn) ebuilds

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lists.tuxfamily.org/proaudio Archives ]



Hi,


according to  http://dev.gentoo.org/~genone/docs/KEYWORDS.stupid
all keywords for live-ebuilds (-9999) should be set to
KEYWORDS=""

as KEYWORDS="-*" means: known to not work.

So a empty KEYWORDS variable is best as you never know when such
a ebuild fails or not.

further discussion about KEYWORDS you can find here:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=160519

To unmask a new package we now have to use:
>=sys-apps/portage-2.1.2-r3

and for unmasking
echo "media-sound/rosegarden **" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords


For easier transition I wrote a script which tries to convert
/etc/portage/package.keywords

the script could be found in the overlay root:
(and should also be executed there)

./convert_live_keywords -cp


This change is going to happen later that day
