Bug 92588 – sys-apps/findutils with g prefix on non-gnu userlands

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo/Alt

[Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) 2005-05-14 06:36:36 UTC]

The attached patch applied over current ebuild installs findutils with g prefix on non-gnu userlands. Also if gxargs is unlikely to be needed, some script just depend on gnu's find behaviour, so having gfind at hand is useful.

As Ciaran is listed as maintainer and he said he doesn't like g prefix on linux (and in this case I think this is quite redundant having both notations), I haven't used the same plan as gmake and similar.

Thanks, Diego

better:

local myconf=""
[[ ${USERLAND} != "GNU" ]] && myconf="--program-prefix=g"
econf $(use_enable nls) || die


ciaran: any reason findutils uses `einstall` ?  4.2.20 has Makefile.am which implies it was built with new enough autotools to support DESTDIR ...

Hmm if you don't pass ${myconf} shouldn't it just ignore --program-prefix=g ?

yes, i forgot to type that in :p

[Comment 6 Ciaran McCreesh 2005-05-14 11:38:12 UTC]

It uses einstall because I haven't gotten around to checking that make destdir works yet. I'll get to this later today. BSD people -- do you need a rev bump for this?

[Comment 7 Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) 2005-05-14 11:44:41 UTC]

I don't think we need a revbump, I put a modified ebuild in the overlay waiting for this being in the maintree, so there's no problem with it I think.
