When it is possible portage uses the name of the ebuild to determine what |
| 15 |
version of a package to download. So if the build process is unchanged and |
| 16 |
the revision naming from upstream is sane then renaming the ebuild should be |
| 17 |
sufficient to make a revision bump. This of course implies that you will be |
| 18 |
running software that isn't tested by the Gentoo maintainer and hence Gentoo |
| 19 |
provides no warranties... |
