[gentoo-dev] ${ARCH} in SRC_URI

[Paul Smith]

Hi all;

On a completely separate note, I have a need to use ${ARCH} or some
value based on ARCH in SRC_URI, but it doesn't seem to be set when
SRC_URI is evaluated.


I have a bunch of ebuilds for a number of different architectures (at
least 4, and more probably coming) where the _only_ difference between
them is the name of the package that's downloaded, which is based on
${ARCH}.  I'd really hate to have to recreate an exponential number of
identical ebuilds just to put the architecture in the ebuild name, but I
can't figure out any way to conditionalize the SRC_URI.


Hints?
