Should this registration api be provided by portage, or by |
16 |
base/profile.bashrc? |
17 |
Hmm, will have to be portage, because /etc/portage/bashrc would override |
18 |
base/profile.bashrc too. base/profile.bashrc just might jump in when not |
19 |
provided by installed portage yet. |

For readability, I'd more like to have 'post' in front of 'install'. |
27 |
|
28 |
Or eventually something like: |
29 |
|
30 |
register_phase_hook \ |
31 |
--before-src_install my_pre_src_install_1 my_pre_src_install_2 \ |
32 |
--after-src_install my_post_src_install_1 my_post_src_install_2 \ |
33 |
--before-<phase-function-name> <multiple hooks> |
34 |
|
35 |
Or with phase-names instead of phase-function-names: |
36 |
|
37 |
register_phase_hook \ |
38 |
--before-{setup,nofetch,unpack,prepare,configure,compile,...} <hooks> \ |
39 |
--after-{...,test,install,preinst,postinst,prerm,postrm} <hooks> |
40 |
|
41 |
Suggesting "before&after" here as I'm always confused with |
42 |
pre_pkg_preinst, post_pkg_preinst, pre_pkg_postinst, post_pkg_postinst, |
43 |
pre_pkg_prerm, post_pkg_prerm, pre_pkg_postrm, post_pkg_prerm. |
44 |
|
45 |
Anyway: besides implementation, what else does it need to get this done? |
46 |
|
47 |
Thank you! |
