Hello There is an ebuild for dev-perl/Digest-SHA and dev-perl/Digest-SHA1, but a piece of software I'm using requires Digest::SHA256, so I've had to install it via CPAN. Any chance this can be added to portage so that updates can be pushed out to all my hosts without too much hassle? Thanks muchly :) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Unless the software you're using - or another one relying on this perl module - enters the repository, use g-cpan or keep an ebuild in your private overlay, please. -- New Perl modules are to be added to portage only when one of the following conditions is met: * The module(s) fulfill a dependency * The module(s) cannot be handled by g-cpan * The module(s) add functionality to existing ebuilds * The module(s) provide tools, applications or other features (i.e. more than what their .PM offers) Please make sure that at least one member of the perl herders approves your addition. http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/hb-policy-ebuild.xml
Ah, sorry for wasting your time. Thanks for the link.
