See the FreeBSD profile for an example.
I'd like to package portage for OpenSolaris and have it just drop-in
work so modifications like what you suggest wouldn't be required.
Hopefully, base-system maintainers don't mind my request, but I can
understand it's beyond the Linux use case.
As I understood it, you want to package (Prefix) Portage for
(Open)Solaris, but without USERLAND=GNU like Gentoo Prefix does. You
want all eclasses, ebuilds and portage itself to work with the Solaris
userland tools.
Not exactly..
1) yes I'm patching (prefix) portage for OpenSolaris.. I say OpenSolaris
because while I'm doing best effort to make it as portable as possible,
but can't test and don't much care about prior versions w/o source.
2) OpenSolaris comes with most GNU tools by default (except sed/find) ,
but appends a g to the front
File: `/usr/gnu/bin/sed' -> `../../bin/gsed'
I'd happily not bring this issue and bother anyone, but on every sync
that eclass is going to get overwritten and the change is pretty minimal.
In regards to the ebuilds I will manage an overlay containing mostly
repackaged sources from upstream. The end goal being able to repackage
the entire OpenSolaris distribution built with portage from source.
Thanks for the minute
