Bah, good point. I knew it was too easy. :-) |

It seems like at this point there is one good suggestion on the table |
| 15 |
for an immediate fix: DEPEND="..." || die |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Of course we all want more flexible DEPEND processing in portage, but |
| 18 |
another avenue of research for somebody is to read the ebuilds (not |
| 19 |
necessarily execute the functions) with "set -e". That doesn't solve |
| 20 |
the problem quickly enough for you, since it requires a portage |
| 21 |
change, but it would solve the general problem of calling functions |
| 22 |
from strings (so long as you only call one!) |
