[gentoo-portage-dev] making dodoc and dohtml die when they fail and stricter is on

[Petteri Räty]

Currently there are quite a few ebuilds in the tree that execute dodoc
or dohtml for files that do not exist. I think it would be nice to have
ebuilds die if this is the case. To not break current ebuilds this would
only happen with FEATURES="stricter". This is what I currently do in my
bashrc. Obviously when integreted to portage one can use helper
functions like hasq which are not available in bashrc.


if [[ "${FEATURES/stricter}" != "${FEATURES}" ]]; then

_makefail() {
	bin="/usr/lib/portage/bin/${1}"
	shift 1
	"${bin}" "${@}" || die "${bin} ${@} failed"
}

dodoc() {	_makefail ${FUNCNAME} "${@}"; }
dohtml() {	_makefail ${FUNCNAME} "${@}"; }

fi
