We are not using digest files in tree any more. This should be reflected in dev handbook. Thanks!
Probably would be useful for someone from the Portage team to review the text wrt new Portage features. http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/hb-introduction-new-devs.xml
- "In order to make sure digests are correct, please put cvs in your FEATURES setting." <- obsolete, can be removed completely - "Whether you wish to use a CVS checkout as your primary Portage tree or not, you should ensure that cvs is in your FEATURES in /etc/make.conf" <- obsolete - "You can add digest to your FEATURES, letting Portage automatically create new digests." <- FEATURES=digest is something I've always wanted to remove, and wasn't documented by carpaski on purpose, so this sentence should probably be removed as well - "You can also add autoaddcvs so repoman, the tool which you will use to commit in ebuilds, would automatically add missing digests for you into CVS." <- obsolete - "# ebuild foo-1.0.ebuild digest" <- maybe use `ebuild ... manifest` or `repoman manifest` instead - "(FEATURES=autoaddcvs will do this for you...) # cvs add files/digest-foo-1.0" <- obsolete - "# cvs remove -f foo-1.0.ebuild files/digest-foo-1.0" <- no need to remove the digest file, but might an idea to run `repoman manifest` after the removal to avoid manifest errors during testing
Changes committed.
