Bug 185949 – dev-util/catalyst should use relative paths rather than absolute

• Status: RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST
• Product: Gentoo Hosted Projects

[Description SpanKY 2007-07-20 06:42:47 UTC]

for cross-compiling, we arent in the chroot, so we need to use relative paths

for native building, nothing should change as the chroot places you in / anyways

So this really needs to be extended to every single path in catalyst, right?

[Comment 3 SpanKY 2007-08-29 17:27:22 UTC]

every path which is used inside of a chroot, yes

my audit covered enough to do a stage1 ... but i wasnt able to complete it due to perl being a wh0re

That's what I thought.  Let me hold off on this for the short term.  I'm going to be branching catalyst SVN soon so I can start working on some newer features that will likely break the SVN for a while and I want something "known good" to still have around for releases.
