Hi, |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I have some questions about lintool. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
In the lintool man page it says that it checks for conformance with the ebuild |
| 19 |
style guide. I found a Gentoo Linux Developers HOWTO and the Eclass (OOP-like |
| 20 |
ebuild) HOWTO but no Style Guide. Where is it? |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
I also don't know what those errors mean: |
| 23 |
- - Testing for malformed headers |
| 24 |
- - Testing for presence of env vars |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
What is a malformed header? |
| 27 |
Or a wellformed? |
| 28 |
Is the one in skel.ebuild correct? |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
What is the error in using an env var inside an ebuild? |
| 31 |
How can/can't one be used? |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
If you run lintool on skel.ebuild it gives: |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
/usr/portage/skel.ebuild : Not |
| 36 |
OK |
| 37 |
