27 Hi, but what do I specify for SRC_URI
28
29 I've tried
30 SRC="MyPack-1.0.7.tar.gz"
31 SLOT="0"
32 KEYWORDS="alpha amd64 arm hppa ia64 mips ppc ppc64 s390 sh sparc x86"
33 IUSE=""
34 S="$WORKDIR/${P}"
35 src_unpack() {
36 unpack "${A}"
37 }
38
39 But it fails saying "nothing specified for unpack"
40 And, indeed,
41 doing
42 ebuild --debug <PATH_to_EBUILD> unpack
43 shows that ${A} is the empty string.
44
45 What am I missing?
46
47 Thanks a lot, it drives me nuts,
48 Helmut.
