[gentoo-dev] Need a use-expanded TV_GRAB variable for xmltv

2006-06-01 Thread Matteo Azzali
XMLTV_OPTS isn't accessible anymore through the ebuild (tomorrow it was). So I'll need a TV_GRAB expanded variable to avoid having 200 local flags. Anyone has something against the addition of such variable into |"profiles/base/make.default" ? mattepiu | -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-dev] cause for *.la files not getting unmerged?

2006-06-01 Thread Sven Köhler
Hi, it seems, i have some *.la files on my system, that don't belong to any ebuild anymore. I noticed that, because the new revdep-rebuild (gentoolkit 0.2.2) also check *.la files, and some were broken (pointing to a libstdc++.la of gcc 4.1.1 - but gcc 4.1.1 has none). So the history is: - gcc 3.

[gentoo-dev] Leaving Gentoo

Hi all, I'm leaving Gentoo. This isn't due to ill feelings or anything like that; I just have no time to work on Gentoo anymore, and have been 'dormant' for many months now. This isn't going to change anytime soon, and so there's no point in my keeping the account. I've enjoyed working on Gent
