1 | Hello World! |
2 | |
3 | TL;DR: |
4 | This evening I plan to mangle ~3000 ebuilds in the main tree |
5 | by dropping trailing '.' in all 'DESCRIPTION=' fields (except "etc." case) |
6 | |
7 | Long story: |
8 | |
9 | As you may know newest portage release 2.2.11 |
10 | got a minor (but chatty) QA warning: |
11 | DESCRIPTION ends with a '.' character |
12 | |
13 | https://github.com/gentoo/portage/commit/06637c4215d55c57517739214c6e0fd6f8f53914 |
14 | https://bugs.gentoo.org/438976 |
15 | |
16 | About ~3000 ebuilds are affected, thus I've sketched a mangling script: |
17 | |
18 | https://github.com/trofi/gentoo-qa/blob/master/check_description.sh |
19 | |
20 | It is nice to use to convert all your large overlays you sync to gx86, etc. |
21 | |
22 | The script does not handle case of multiline description: |
23 | DESCRIPTION="You have to |
24 | clean that yourself." |
25 | |
26 | I'll mangle/commit one package at a time. Hope not to interfere with your |
27 | workflow much. |
28 | |
29 | If you have any objections/thoughts please do say so. |
30 | |
31 | Thanks! |
