Hi, |
5 |
|
6 |
I'm the author of REXML. I'm also an extremely new Gentoo user. (uptime => |
7 |
3:54pm up 1 day, 22:01, 3 users). |
8 |
|
9 |
Apparently, I rsynced a couple of days too late, because I just submitted a |
10 |
Portage package for REXML (bug #4072), at about the same time the Aaron's |
11 |
version was unmasked. |
12 |
|
13 |
I'm not sure how you want to handle this. Specifically, Aaron, if you're |
14 |
going to continue maintaining the portage script, you'll be interested to |
15 |
know that I've added support to the install script specifically for Portage. |
16 |
I've added two new arguments: |
17 |
|
18 |
-d (--destdir) |
19 |
-n (--noop) |
20 |
|
21 |
They do what you'd expect: 'ruby bin/install.rb -d ${D}' will cause REXML to |
22 |
install itself relative to ${D}; EG: |
23 |
|
24 |
ruby bin/install.rb -d /tmp => /tmp/usr/lib/ruby/site-ruby/1.6/rexml/... |
25 |
|
26 |
- --noop may or may not be useful; I added it to help debug with adding the -d |
27 |
(and a -t) flags. Basically, it is orthoganal to "emerge --pretend" -- it |
28 |
tells you what it would do, but doesn't do it. In any case, the --destdir |
29 |
option should obviate the need for the patch. |
30 |
|
31 |
Another difference between Aaron's package and mine is that I went ahead and |
32 |
installed the documentation via dohtml. I need to add some dodocs for the |
33 |
README and the licenses. In any case, feel free to merge my ebuilds with |
34 |
your's Aaron. |
35 |
|
36 |
I'm sorry for the duplicate work. Just let me know if you want me to maintain |
37 |
the ebuild; otherwise, let me know if there's anything I can do to tweak the |
38 |
REXML install to help you out. |
39 |
|
40 |
Thanks. |
