Please redo your submission by following this document: http://emu.gentoo.org/~liquidx/ebuildmistakes.html

I do agree that the ebuild guide should link to this or incorporate this information.

Sven, I think he's right -- liquidx's guide should either be linked or incorporated.

[Comment 4 Sven Vermeulen (RETIRED) 2004-01-09 07:28:22 UTC]

It's on our TODO list (#37401)

Merged Lars' openct-0.5.0.ebuild with my own

All right, sorry for not finding this dupe. :(

I've removed my useless hotplug USE flag in favor of the spiffier usb USE flag.


Adjusted indentation so it fits better for tab width 4.

Basically kept Lars' good stuff (sedmagic, use usb, good einfo) and added some
of my own (enewgroup for better security, add sed to DEPEND but not RDEPEND,
more good einfo) for everyone's pleasure.

I still think OpenCT (and probably OpenSC too) belongs in sys-libs rather than
sys-apps. After all, it's a development library that happens to use some
applications for the lowlevel API implementation.

[Comment 9 Peter Stuge 2004-02-18 06:17:04 UTC]

I'm unsure about the opensc ebuild, as it stands it depends on openct, which isn't really true. It's perfectly possible to run opensc without openct, although I personally (and I guess Lars as well) think OpenCT is much better than any of the alternatives (pcsc-lite, CTAPI).

Maybe OpenCT and pcsc-lite should provide virtual/smartcardreader, which OpenSC could depend on? On the other hand, pcsc-lite and OpenCT aren't mutually exclusive. Tough. I don't know. I'm new to all of this. :)
