Which are the cases you (and others ofc) think it would be reasonable for?
So far, the only one I've seen that might work well for is quoting
around specific variables. You could do something like a grep for words
containing '${+D[^[:alnum:]-_]' (haven't tested that, just beginnings of
an idea) and the same for S and WORKDIR.
marienz mentioned something similar a few months ago, wrt allowing unquoted
expansions for specific vars that are used in eg for loops (like A or
SRC_URI) and not for any others.
ed(1) really is the tool to use for that -- g/RegEx/p does exactly what grep
does, and there's no compatibility issue for FreeBSD vs Linux. (It's also a
lot more capable than sed, and there really is no need for awk in this
instance.)

[gentoo-dev] New developer : Timo Gurr (tgurr)
It's my pleasure to introduce Timo Gurr (tgurr) who will join us as a new developer. He will work primarily on KDE and printing. Timo lives in Neckarsulm, Germany, and works as an IT technician in a local city administration near his home. He finds his job very interesting and loves it, and even runs some Gentoo machines there. His interests are very wide-ranging and he likes to play a good game from time to time. This makes him believe he is a pretty normal guy. Well, let me tell you something, Timo. You've just entered Gentoo-land, so please leave all normality at the gate. Thanks for your understanding.

running commands to get a sane default is not user friendly

Anyway, I'd much rather leave everything as it is now than add the emerge --config stuff. You're free to add it to the ebuilds, of course, which would satisfy the people that want it, but I would prefer not add it to the stages, even if it is documented in the Handbook, as it isn't required. Basically, I'd rather we either throw it into the earlier stages, or not do it at all. You've given good reason on why, while technically feasible since we're only caring about bash at this time, it is still a bad idea as it opens us up to yet another slippery slope. I completely see your point, which is why I'm taking the stance that things are best left as they are now. defaults are never a requirement, but they provide a nice initial/sane environment we should really rename build to stage1, bootstrap to stage2, and then have catalyst add USE=stage3 during the stage3 step ... that would allow packages to automatically key off of the environment -mike signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

${WORKDIR}/usr \
${WORKDIR}/var/log/firebird \
${WORKDIR}/var/run/firebird
cd ${WORKDIR}/usr; ln -s ${WORKDIR}/${MY_P}/gen/firebird/bin
cd ${WORKDIR}/../etc; ln -s ${WORKDIR}/${MY_P}/gen/firebird
firebird
It's symlinks so the runtime changes as to Firebirds don't prevent the
build system from completing. Since the build system and normal Firebird
installs expect everything to be under one directory. Not split into
many. Nothing gets placed there, and they only act as links.
Well, I don't understand why you have to work outside of WORKDIR.
(${WORKDIR}/../)
Because Firebird expects everything in one dir.
Currently /usr/share/firebird. All paths are relative to that. I had to
modified relative paths by adding ../../../ to all paths. So
that ../../../ = / ideally. Although I think it's going to break in some
cases like chroots or etc. That way when it's base
in /usr/share/firebird, it can find stuff
in /etc/firebird, /usr/bin, /var/run/firebird, /var/log/firebird, etc.
So what happens is during build, those relative paths have the build
system looking outside of the workdir. I create dirs and symlinks so the
build system can find stuff inside the workdir, despite paths being
outside of it.
It's not pretty, maybe not ideal. But was the only way I could think of
to get things building, and allow for splitting up Firebird during
install per FHS. Without breaking runtime either.
Totally open for other suggestions and ideas of how to accomplish this.
I will provide feedback and info to upstream. So hopefully over time
this can be changed, and the hack of symlinks won't be needed during
build.

Wouldn't be better to determine what version of sqlite should be used
based on the version of sqlite currently installed on the system?
Something like:
sqlite_atom=$(best_version dev-db/sqlite)
sqlite_major_version=${sqlite_atom#*/*-} #reduce it to $PV-$PR
sqlite_major_version=${sqlite_major_version%%.*} # major version
... ebuild stuff...
econf \
$(use_enable sqlite sqlite${sqlite_major_version})
Better yet, why not make an sqlite.eclass that would contain at least
get_sqlite_major_version()?

Is there some way to avoid using bundled libs here? It really turns into

Not that I know of. I need these libs to be compiled against klibc,

This ebuild has really inconsistent use of tests, quotes in tests, and
command substitutions. Being more consistent will increase readability
and decrease bugs due to differences between styles. For tests, pick a
style [[ ]] or [ ] and stick with it. The [[ ]] one is pretty nice
because it generally doesn't require quotes, so the code looks a lot
cleaner. For command substitions, prefer $() over ``.

Subshells are gross, can you try a code block { } instead?
A code block isn't even required since this grouping does the same as without
it. More importantly, though, why isn't this ebuild using use_enable? It
seems that:
use X myconf=$myconf $(use_enable video_cards_mga xmga)
myconf=$myconf $(use_enable video_cards_mga mga)
would do the same?
In another example from the ebuild:
use bl myconf=${myconf} --enable-bl
if USE=bl is disabled --disable-bl isn't passed to the configure script which
means the default is picked. There's a good chance that this kind of
behaviour results in automagic deps...

On Mon, 2007-09-24 at 13:54 +0200, Ramon van Alteren wrote: Currently, Release Engineering is quite understaffed. We have lost a few release coordinators between the last release and now. The arch teams are picking up the slack and getting people to fill the roles, but they have to be trained, which means more time spent training and less time spent working, which delays a release fairly significantly. Are you still looking for staff ? What roles/positions/work needs doing most ? Release Engineering is almost always looking for staff. The primary need is architecture release coordinators for the architectures which have lost them. Anyone considering joining Release Engineering should be capable of being an ebuild developer, if they're not already, as most issues are in ebuild code. Familiarity with catalyst and genkernel is a requirement. Strong python and bash skills are preferred. Are you aware that http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/staffing-needs/ lists no staffing needs for release engineering ? I am well aware. I have no intentions on asking our user pool for help with this due to my own constraints. It has nothing to do with the users themselves and everything to do with what we actually need. We don't need people that we have to train, as that only takes time that we already do not have to train the new person, compounding the problem more than it helps. We don't really need people that are not on architecture teams, because their work is representative of the team and they need to work with the team in question. Unfortunately, this pretty much leaves us pulling from our current developer pool. Where do I volunteer and what amount of time-investment can I expect ? Well, first you would need to become a developer. I don't have time to mentor someone myself, so you'd need to find a mentor and get yourself into the developer pool. Aside that, you'd need to be able to use catalyst and troubleshoot your own issues with it. I know that this sounds really bad, but I don't mean it to be. It doesn't help me, at all, if I have to teach someone. My familiarity with catalyst is such that it is generally faster to do something myself than to teach someone else to do it. Basically, we require people who are completely self-motivated learners capable of reading code, understanding it, and putting that new knowledge into practice without help. The amount of time required can vary wildly, depending on the quality of the tree for your architecture, just how crazy the architecture boot sequence is, the speed of your hardware, etc. On average, I spend anywhere from 20 to 40 hours a *week* during release times. I've spent as little as 3 or 4 hours and as much as 60 hours. Also, Release Engineering is one of the few places where deadlines are very important, meaning you have to be able to actually commit to time lines and follow through, on time. Of course, this makes Release Engineering one of the more stressful jobs around Gentoo.

einfo Please re-emerge x11-libs/cairo with the X USE flag set

}
One trick I like doing here is setting a local variable, then using it
twice to avoid duplicating the same info. For example:
local msg=Please re-emerge x11-libs/cairo with the X USE flag set
eerror $msg
die $msg
BTW, note that I changed that einfo to an eerror, since it's dying.
if [ -e /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.[^1]* ]; then
elog You need to rebuild ebuilds that installed into
/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.[^1]*
elog to do that you can use qfile from portage-utils:
elog emerge -va1 \$(qfile -qC /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.[^1]*)
Looks like get_libdir() should be here.

You could use C-style syntax here:

I find it a bit more readable.

You need the double-bracket tests for this to work without quotes. Add
quotes or switch to [[ ]].

I find it a bit more readable.
i like to get anal and use ((++use_errors))
then again, it may also be more readable like so:
use_errors=false
if ... ; then
...
use_errors=true
fi
if ... ; then
...
use_errors=true
fi
${use_errors} die ...
