Hi, one cannot install emacs-w3m if "async" is in USE. That's too restrictive, because the user (like me) could have www-client/w3m -async in his/her /etc/portage/package.use. So sticking with a simple warning message about the async-problem would be better.
<snip> # use async doesn't ensure you built w3m with async flag, # but it's safe to abort if you have it. ewarn "emacs-w3m hangs if you build w3m with async support." ewarn "Please turn off async USE flag if you set it." ewarn if use async ; then die "async USE flag detected. aborting." fi </snip> This is completely broken check, if the thing really doesn't work when something else is compiled with a particular USE flag, then please do something like: inherit eutils ... if built_with_use www-client/w3m async; then eerror "emacs-w3m hangs if you build w3m with async support." die "re-emerge www-client/w3m with USE=\"-async\"" fi Don't die just because someone has a USE flag enabled that isn't even in this ebuild's IUSE.
Arch teams for alpha, ppc, x86 and sparc: Please add stable keywords for app-emacs/emacs-w3m-1.4.4-r1 in order to resolve this bug. Thanks for the QA solution Jakub
Looks safe to mark this as stable on x86 since it's just a change in how the ebuild checks for w3m's USE, and the logic there is working fine. (I gave it 10 minutes of testing anyway, and didn't run into any problems).
ppc stable
x86 stable, thanks David
SPARC, it makes me so stable.
I mentioned alpha arch, but neglected to add it to the CC list.
alpha archs testers, please keyword emacs app-emacs/emacs-w3m-1.4.4-r1 stable.
1.4.4-r1 stable on alpha.
All arches done, closing
