Actually, that is the only current course of action that is acceptable. |

The templates are documentation. They are all empty on purpose, as you |
| 13 |
are either supposed to fill them in yourself, after copying the template |
| 14 |
to a spec file for your own use, or you remove the option if you do not |
| 15 |
use it. The documentation above each option is the important part. |

Not really. If I get annoyed, I'll just quit answering and let other |
| 20 |
members of the catalyst-hate group answer... :P |

I need to make that more apparent. |

portage_confdir... |

This would require portage_confdir. We don't use portage_confdir when |
| 37 |
building releases, however. I also personally dislike it, as it removes |
| 38 |
the transparency of being able to give someone a spec file. |

Use livecd/fsscript to add a shell script to be executed to perform any |
| 45 |
additional tasks. You can even use it for merging packages with crazy |
| 46 |
USE flags... *grin* |
