Portage download the file samba-{the_version_in_the_name_of_the_ebuild}. |
| 13 |
The ebuild file just contains commands and parameters to compile samba, it |
| 14 |
doesn't contain the source. Often, new versions don't need change in |
| 15 |
parameters/commands. |

Unless something very magic happens at: |
| 18 |
> # ebuild samba-3.0.23b.ebuild digest |
| 19 |
|

|
| 21 |
The digest is just a security option (this create the md5 of the file). |
