It's coming in EAPI5 anyway, and will allow me to patch this gem finally: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658280 Thanks!
I'd rather use EAPI5 directly then.
(In reply to comment #1) > I'd rather use EAPI5 directly then. It looks like I'm out of date -- there was an early implementation by Zac but it was removed after the council decided to push it back to EAPI>5: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/council/meeting-logs/20120911.txt The idea was that every ebuild would have to call apply_user_patches at some point: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/pms.git;a=commit;h=a8bf7862967cce36b7f1b408934a774126da2538 so adding epatch_user in the right place now would save a few minutes later. In any case -- even if the user patches feature never makes it in -- I'd like to be able to fix the file chooser.
epatch_user has been added to all gtk+:2 and :3 ebuilds in the tree. >*gtk+-2.24.14 (06 Dec 2012) > > 06 Dec 2012; Alexandre Rostovtsev <tetromino@gentoo.org> > -gtk+-2.24.10-r1.ebuild, gtk+-2.24.12.ebuild, -gtk+-2.24.13.ebuild, > gtk+-2.24.13-r1.ebuild, +gtk+-2.24.14.ebuild, > -files/gtk+-3.0.8-darwin-quartz.patch, > -files/gtk+-3.0.11-darwin-quartz-introspection.patch, -gtk+-3.0.12-r1.ebuild, > -files/gtk+-3.0.12-use-const.patch, gtk+-3.2.4-r1.ebuild, gtk+-3.4.4.ebuild, > -gtk+-3.6.1.ebuild, gtk+-3.6.2.ebuild: > Version bump; 2.24.14 supports setting the default file chooser mode in > ~/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser.ini.

Awesome, thanks.
