I agree! And fast please :) I guess I should research how to do an ebuild...
for now you can do this as root: cd /usr/portage/net-mail/f-prot cp f-prot-4.1.1.ebuild f-prot-4.1.2.ebuild emerge -u f-prot When that completes it will ask you to make a digest. Do this: ebuild f-prot-4.1.2.ebuild digest Then do this again: emerge -u f-prot The update-script is now called check-update.pl instead of check-update.sh, so you need to modify your /etc/cron.daily/f-prot.cron if you're using that. Remember to run it immidiately: /opt/f-prot/check-updates.pl It seems to work.
Oh, and an addition, I use this in conjunction with qmail-scanner - and the version information in the header didn't get updated... I manually changed the version information in: /var/spool/qmailscan/qmail-scanner-queue-version.txt
Oh I forgot! For those doing this, it would of course be deleted at next emerge sync. If you do not want that, do this instead. These are the complete steps: (make sure you've set PORTAGE_OVERLAY in make.conf) cd <your PORTAGE_OVERLAY directory> mkdir -p net-mail/f-prot cd net-mail/f-prot cp /usr/portage/net-mail/f-prot/f-prot-4.1.1.ebuild ./f-prot-4.1.2.ebuild ebuild f-prot-4.1.2.ebuild digest emerge -u f-prot That should be it and remember, that the update-script is now called check-update.pl instead of check-update.sh, so you need to modify your /etc/cron.daily/f-prot.cron if you're using that. Remember to run it immidiately: /opt/f-prot/check-updates.pl If you use f-prot with qmail-scanner, edit /var/spool/qmailscan/qmail-scanner-queue-version.txt To reflect the correct version (this is just cosmetic). That's it... Sorry for spamming on this bug!
f-prot-4.1.2 is now in portage and 4.1.1 has been removed.
