Bug 72360 – autoconfig doesnt always work

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Portage Development

[Description SpanKY 2004-11-24 09:12:29 UTC]

the current code in econf is this:
for x in $(find ${S} -type f -name config.guess -o -name config.sub) ; do
    einfo "econf: updating $x with /usr/share/gnuconfig/$(/bin/basename ${x})"
    cp /usr/share/gnuconfig/$(/bin/basename ${x}) ${x}
done

that should run find on ${WORKDIR} instead of ${S}

also, as a graphical nitpick, it should do 'updating ${x/${WORKDIR}\/}' instead of 'updating $x'
that way you dont get things like:
 * econf: updating /var/tmp/portage/module-init-tools-3.1/work/module-init-tools-3.1/config.guess with /usr/share/gnuconfig/config.guess
it'd look like this instead:
 * econf: updating module-init-tools-3.1/config.guess with /usr/share/gnuconfig/config.guess

Created attachment 44649 [details, diff]
ebuild.sh.autoconfig.patch

i think this should do it (didnt test though :P)

We should probably make the 'einfo' in this area of code use 'echo' something like

+ echo ">>> autoconfig: updating ${x/${WORKDIR}\/} with /usr/share/gnuconfig/$(/bin/basename ${x})"
