Whilst you're at it... Why not split unpack up into, say, unpack and |
| 9 |
prepare? Make src_unpack's default stay the same and use src_prepare |
| 10 |
for patches and autotools things? This will avoid the pointless |
| 11 |
duplication of the default src_unpack code that's currently used in |
| 12 |
many ebuilds. |
