Subject: [gentoo-catalyst] [PATCH] Use Portage's make.conf parser, allow user-specified extra bind mount points, allow absolute profile paths
Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2007 15:27:09
Message-Id: f4jmp1$3ch$1@sea.gmane.org
1 Attached is a collection of enhancements I'm using in my local catalyst
2 installation. In particular:
3
4 - Uses the make.conf parser from portage_utils. This handles source
5 directives, multi-line constants, and other goodness the catalyst one
6 doesn't.
7 - Adds a new directive, "extra_mounts", allows user-specified bind
8 mount points. If for some reason an advanced user who's doing funky
9 things wants extra bind mounts into the build region, this permits it.
10 - Allow absolute profile paths. Necessary for folks using custom
11 profiles not within /usr/portage/profiles. (In my case, that profile is
12 coming off a network filesystem for which a bind mount is set up via the
13 extra_mounts directive).
14
15 If 'yall want me to split patch this out into multiple pieces, I'd be
16 glad to do so.
