Re: [gentoo-user] Hooks for Portage 2.1?
I don't think the hooks are useful for that. i have been told to use these two: post_src_unpack/pre_src_compile (but dont know how). Why not just copy the ebuild to an overlay and apply the patch in the ebuild in the overlay? basically because its tedious to make new ebuild for each new version for a given package when i have some particular patch i always want to apply. pavel -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Hmm... Well, if you want to apply foo.patch on category/name all you really
need to do should be something like:
# mkdir -p /etc/portage/env/category echo post_src_unpack() {
epatch /absolute/path/to/foo.patch
} /etc/portage/env/category/name

thanks a lot :))
even that emerge_patch script could be done using this.

Re: [gentoo-user] Hooks for Portage 2.1?
hi, Would anyone happen to know where the API for Portage 2.1, that explains the new hook framework layout? I'm not sure such documentation exists... What do you want to do? i would like to have a script (usage e.g. emerge_patch package path/patch_file) which would emerge a given package and apply given patch after source unpack phase. as i understood some time ago the hooks could be used for it, but i havent found any hint how to use them. pavel -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] Hooks for Portage 2.1?
Well... it's time I revisited my /etc/portage/bashrc file, now that Portage 2.1 is vogue. My old bashrc doesn't work anymore and things have changed sufficiently with 2.1 that I need some help... documentation. Would anyone happen to know where the API for Portage 2.1, that explains the new hook framework layout? Thanks. Jerry -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I had a bash script that would simply delete the archives downloaded to distfiles, after the emerge completed. Really a handy thing to have, managed my distfiles automaticly. It doesn't work anymore since the upgrade to portage 2.1.x. I could fix it, but the hooks have either moved or have been eliminated in favor of some other mechanism. Hence my need for documentation or tips... Jerry -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Did you want to keep your distdir empty after each merge or did you want to get rid of sources when they are no longer needed? If the latter why don't you use eclean from app-portage/gentoolkit?
