| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | to configure site-specific eclass override behavior. Note that configuration settings which are specified here do not apply to tools such as repoman(1) and egencache(1) since their operations are inherently not site-specific. Beware that use of eclass-overrides is generally not recommended and that it may trigger performance issues under some circumstances (see bug #124041). Example: # make all repositories inherit eclasses from the java-overlay and # java-experimental repositories, with eclasses from java-experimental # taking precedence over those from java-overlay [DEFAULT] eclass-overrides = java-overlay java-experimental # disable all eclass overrides for the gentoo repository [gentoo] eclass-overrides = (trunk r13325) svn path=/main/branches/2.1.6/; revision=13490

* Add portdbapi support for a metadata/layout.conf file whichZac Medico2009-04-301-0/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | specifies information about the repository layout. Currently, only a single "masters" attribute is supported, which is used to specify names of repositories which satisfy dependencies on eclasses and/or ebuilds. Each repository name should correspond the value of a repo_name entry from one of the repositories that is configured via the PORTDIR or PORTDIR_OVERLAY variables. Since layout.conf is now used to control eclass inheritance, it is now safer to use overlays which contain forked eclasses have names identical to those from the main tree. Such eclasses will only apply to their containing repository and any other repositories which reference their containing repository via layout.conf. This solves bug #124041 by containing eclass overrides so that they don't necessarily apply to all ebuilds. Thanks to Alistair Bush <ali_bush@g.o> for his initial patch for layout.conf support in repoman (will be merged later). See the "QA Overlay Layout support" thread on the gentoo-dev mailing list for more information: http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_33c61550b4ed2b7b25dd5a4110e1ec81.xml (trunk r13291) svn path=/main/branches/2.1.6/; revision=13462

| | | | | | | | | | | | for any files that exist in ${DISTDIR}. This provides an alternative to ebuild --force manifest for updating existing distfiles digests. Digests are assumed to be corect for files that do not exist in ${DISTDIR} since the user could simply remove the whole Manifest if they wanted to regenerate digests for all files (and it's safer to regenerate as few as possible because it's less probably that a valid digest will get replaced by an invalid one).
