Winner in contest for the biggest FILESDIR in tree :-)

[Comment 1 Frank Steinmetzger 2013-01-10 14:57:43 UTC]

Since all patch files seem to be in the distfile and can be retrieved from it with git, are those many separate patch files necessary at all?

[Comment 2 Justin Lecher (RETIRED) 2013-01-12 15:36:02 UTC]

We can't do anything else the reducing the number of ebuild in the tree.
We are modifying files in the live system, so we need to workaround the sandbox. This means we need to patch in pkg_setup, which again forces the patches to be in FILESDIR as we cannot uncompress them before.

Be creative ;P

last thing to do is s/FILESDIR/T/ in pkg_setup, I left it out to save space here ;)

I hoped that I could be just lazy. :D
