Description Atzm Watanabe 2003-12-23 13:35:26 UTC
Hi,

usetest is a tester for ebuild file in all USE flag patterns.
For example, if ebuildfile has IUSE="cjk nls" variables,
usetest lets run following commands:

  USE=" cjk  nls" emerge =ebuildname-version
  USE="-cjk  nls" emerge =ebuildname-version
  USE=" cjk -nls" emerge =ebuildname-version
  USE="-cjk -nls" emerge =ebuildname-version

Thus, usetest can test ebuild automatically. 

Thank you,

Seems that the URL is dead
Comment 4 Atzm Watanabe 2004-10-06 18:29:20 UTC
URL has moved.
also SRC_URI has moved too, so I attach a diff for ebuild.

homepage is living. not CANTFIX... :(
Comment 7 Marius Mauch (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-07 05:58:12 UTC
Ok, I see a few problems with it:
- no copyright information (GPL, public domain, ...)
- depends on ruby, shouldn't be a big problem to rewrite that part in python
- 'grep IUSE ${EBUILD}' will miss flags if eclasses modify IUSE or IUSE spans more than one line
The idea is good but the implementation needs to be improved.
Comment 8 Atzm Watanabe 2004-10-09 06:18:59 UTC
I see.
I intend to distribute this under the GPL-2, I'll also specify it in source code.

I'll post again after fix those problems and rewrite in Python or Bash.
Thank you for your comments.
Comment 9 Atzm Watanabe 2004-10-12 03:37:54 UTC
Rewritten in Python with my friend together.
This version has two type. one is calling emerge using os.system. Its character is:
 * can test completely.
 * may be break test environment because it does `merge' also (but may be able to avoid using --buildpkgonly and --oneshot).

Other one is calling portage.doebuild. Its character is:
 * cannot control output from doebuild, from this script.
 * cannot test `postinst' and etc. because it does only `clean', `setup', `unpack', `compile' and `install' (for the meantime).
 * can keep test environment.

which is better?

Comment 12 Marius Mauch (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-12-08 04:29:58 UTC
Well, packages won't get picked up by portage or the package if they aren't merged so just installing the potential deps into $D isn't enough. This should be used in  a chroot anyway, so merging isn't really a big issue. I'll check it in more detail later.
Comment 13 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-12-27 14:18:48 UTC
See app-portage/gatt-svn. If you have suggestions wrt gatt, file a bug for the maintainer. 

Closing this bug as it's dead, thanks.
