* In order to reduce time consumed for dependency checks, skip 'dev' profilesZac Medico2008-11-161-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | by default and add an --include-dev option which causes them to be checked. Given the current profiles.desc content, this approximately halves the number of profiles checked by default and also halves the time consumed by repoman.

* Add support for FEATURES="protect-owned" which is identical to theZac Medico2008-08-301-4/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | collision-protect feature except that files may be overwritten if they are not explicitly listed in the contents of a currently installed package. This is particularly useful on systems that have lots of orphan files that have been left behind by older versions of portage that did not support the unmerge-orphans feature. The additional tolerance makes this feature more suitable than collision-protect for being enabled by default. In order to ensure smooth operation of protect-owned in all cases, we also have to set COLLISION_IGNORE="/lib/modules" since files inside this directory are never unmerge. By enabling protect-owned by default, users are protected from problems that may occur due interactions with file collisions and the unmerge-orphans feature which is also enabled by default. svn path=/main/trunk/; revision=11479

* Remove the list of FEATURES descriptions from make.conf.example and replaceZac Medico2008-08-011-4/+4

* Add support for the --jobs option to be specified without anZac Medico2008-07-291-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | argument, and also support -j as a short option. Since optparse doesn't natively support options with non-required args, create an insert_optional_args() function that inserts the required argument into the args so that optparse is happy. The function inserts the string True as a substitute for the argument that is required. This string is later converted to the True constant when stored in the emerge opts dict (similar to how normal boolean options are stored). The PollScheduler and SequentialTaskQueue classes recognize the meaning of the True constant to mean unlimited concurrent jobs. svn path=/main/trunk/; revision=11261

* Bug #233077 - Add QA check which verifies that LDFLAGS are respected. For nowZac Medico2008-07-272-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | this only works when LDFLAGS contains --hash-style=gnu since in this case the the elf files should not contain .hash sections and we can use scanelf to check whether or not the those sections exist. This adds a QA_DT_HASH variable that is analogous to existing QA control variables documented in the ebuild.5 man page. There is also a complementary QA_STRICT_DT_HASH variable that can be set in make.conf in order to ignore QA_DT_HASH settings in ebuilds. Thanks to Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis for this patch which I've tweaked in just a few minor ways. svn path=/main/trunk/; revision=11205

| | | | | | | | | to adjust ionice priority, similar to PORTAGE_NICENESS but used more like FETCHCOMMAND since so that portage doesn't have to know anything about ionice options.
