[1] Then see the procedure to handle this bug: [1] You cannot drop gnuconfig_update, so please leave the bug open, but set the status whiteboard to "Waiting autoepatch". [2] Fix the ebuild, use econf! [3] econf accepts a ECONF_SOURCE variable to tell it to run the configure found in another directory; to run ../configure just use ECONF_SOURCE=".." econf. [4] Fix your autotools with http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/autofailure.xml adnd then use econf. Once you're using econf, it will take care of updating gnuconfig by itself. Thanks from Diego and Mike gabrielp@simnet.is 2007-06-21 13:07:14 0000 This bug is already fixed in 2.2.2. Close? halcy0n@gentoo.org 2007-12-19 04:08:14 0000 (In reply to comment #1) > This bug is already fixed in 2.2.2. Close? > There is no call to gnuconfig_update (though the import is still there). We can't close this until all of the old ebuilds are dropped, which should be possible since 2.2.2 has stable keywords on every arch now (where necessary). mysql: Could you please do this? Thanks halcy0n@gentoo.org 2008-01-16 05:26:08 0000 mysql++-1.7.26: Found mysql++-1.7.34: Found mysql++-2.0.4: Found mysql++-2.2.2-r1: mysql++-2.3.2: So, those are the ones that have gnuconfig_update in them. Could we punt them? :) All of the ebuilds still inherit gnuconfig as well. robbat2@gentoo.org 2008-01-16 05:38:05 0000 old versions punted and inherits fixed.
