4 Hi all,
5
6 I'm the guy trying to put the portage tree in a relational database
7 and making a portage-lite script to search and caculate deps from the
8 database. I have currently some questions I couldn't find looking at
9 the huge portage.py file:
10
11 - - Where does portage saves information about installed files besides
12 the world file, like versions installed and such?
13
14 - - I came across some dependancies like "useflag? ( ||
15 ( cat/package ) )". I can't find a logic in this and assume it's a
16 mistake, or am I missing something?
17
18 - - What exactly are CDEPEND, PDEPEND and EAPI specified on the cache
19 format?
20
21 Thanks in advance,
22 Ricardo Loureiro
