[gentoo-dev] RFC: adding support for running eautoconf to base.eclass
What do you think about adding support to base.eclass for running
eautoreconf?
so instead of
src_unpack() {
unpack ${A}
cd "${A}"
eautoreconf
}
would just add
EAUTORECONF="yes"
inherit base

One of my staff members is currently being mentored to become a developer, he is going to offer to maintain MIT Kerberos once he's done. We're running Kerberos on Gentoo here and it's rather important to us. I'm not sure of the current state of his mentorship, but he did just have his first baby Monday so it's probably not the top thing on his mind :)... -- Paul B.

Isn't base.eclass considered pretty much dead and to be avoided?

The former is much clearer...I don't see the gain... also in the
former example you neglected to inherit autotools ;)

Re: [gentoo-dev] RFC: adding support for running eautoconf to base.eclass
Petteri Räty a écrit : What do you think about adding support to base.eclass for running eautoreconf? *puts on Gnome hat* In most of the ebuilds where we need to run eautoreconf, we usually apply patches. I can't remember of an ebuild where we just run eautoreconf on its own. In the end, that won't help us at all (which is no reason not to have this :) ) but I'm afraid that adding options for semi-hidden stuff can come and bite us later, as we add more and more of those.
