Description Benda Xu gentoo-dev

in wrapper.py(71)get_root(), the code uses portage.root to retrive $ROOT variable. portage.root == portage.settings['EROOT'] =! portage.settings['ROOT'] in Prefix

How to patch this in upstream?

http://webapp-config.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/webapp-config/trunk/webapp-config/WebappConfig/wrapper.py?revision=25&view=markup&sortby=log

Reproducible: Always

interestingly enough:

>>> print portage.root
/Library/Gentoo/

that's printing EROOT, not ROOT :S

Fix in master/HEAD at git.overlays.gentoo.org/proj/webapp-config.git

@Benda.  The sourceforge code seems abandoned.  I'm not sure whether I've "forked" it or just continuing development of it for gentoo.  Devan is doing most of the leg work these days.
