Bug 349603 – dev-libs/libpipeline-1.1.0: new package

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Colin Watson 2010-12-24 13:06:48 UTC]

Hi,

Here's libpipeline-1.1.0.ebuild.  I'm the upstream author of libpipeline, which I split out from man-db recently.  man-db 2.5.9 still contains its own copy of libpipeline (though it can be built with an external copy; ./configure --with-external-pipeline), but man-db 2.6.0 will not.

I'm not sure whether this should be in sys-libs/libpipeline (since it's needed for sys-apps/man-db) or dev-libs/libpipeline.  Please advise.

I probably ought to have installed ChangeLog too.  Improved version attached.

base-system: Do you want to take this?

libpipeline-1.1.0.ebuild

 - `die` on dodoc is undesired
 - EAPI=3 is unnecessary
 - DEPEND=RDEPEND is a bit overly pedantic, but whatever
 - SRC_URI should use mirror://nongnu/...
 - SLOT should be 0

Thanks for correcting my mistakes!  I hadn't tried writing an ebuild before.

Note (re static-libs) that I very much don't recommend building libpipeline as a static library and have no idea what all the gnulib symbols will do if you try that.  Don't blame me if that causes problems!
