am-utils ebuild for am-utils 6.0.9

Comment 2 Edward Roper 2003-04-10 03:17:43 UTC

Could potentially make use of --infodir and --mandir during the configure stage. Other than that I can vouch that this ebuild works. 

I can also vouch that for those of us using gentoo in corporate and/or production environments this is of great importance. /net (netfs) automounting with autofs is still flaky and amd implements it wonderfully. The lack of am-utils in gentoo is very apparent when working in a mixed Solaris/Linux environment.

noted, i've been busy with bugfixes with our package upgrade phase for _rc4. now that _rc4 is "below-zero" (we can't use the word frozen:) i can have time to look at this.

it won't be long till this is in portage.

am-utils has been added to net-fs/am-utils with the info and man pages correctly placed.

however, i'm not in a good position to test whether amd is functioning well, but everything installs correctly and the daemon starts and stops correctly.
