Hi ppl, I have make a draft version of the portage changes needed. |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I am not a python programmer, or want to be! The code can be optimised a |
| 4 |
bit but I believe that prelink was well programmed so all checks for |
| 5 |
file type etc are best handled by C based prelink, as long as os.system |
| 6 |
is fast. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
I have created code which adds support for the FEATURE flag prelink. |
| 9 |
If it exists it uses prelink to verify the md5sums. |
| 10 |
Also it prelinks files as they are installed. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Most importantly it works for me! Happy testing! |

This is based on the latest CVS portage |

TODO: |
| 20 |
* Safety checks for existence of /usr/sbin/prelink |
| 21 |
* optimise to minimise number of calls to prelink |
| 22 |
* see if a less IO intensive md5sum method exists (of course it does!) |
| 23 |

now to sleep ..... |
