1 gucharmap didn't have an uptodate ebuild, so I thought I'd put one
2 together, but..
3
4 The configure/Makefile for gucharmap-0.6.1 attempts to rebuild the GTK
5 input module cache file during install. Obviously portage catches this,
6 so what's the best way to handle this?
7
8 It basically executes:
9
10 gtk-query-immodules-2.0 > /etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules
11
12
13 The possibilities I can see are:
14
15 a) possibly portage has a function to specify that access to
16 /etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules is allowed.
17
18 or
19
20 b) I provide a patch to the sources to stop this happening, then do it
21 myself in the ebuild after install.
22
23
24 Any other ideas? What's best?
25
26 Cheers,
