manifest_excludes allow me to keep portage in strict checking mode on while allowing me to bypass the need to have ChangeLog/metadata.xml or any other file I wish to override on slave servers which do not need them.
Created attachment 49667 [details, diff] portage-manifest_excludes.patch patch made for portage-2.0.51-r15
Easy enough.
Can we get this into the next sys-apps/portage-2.0.51.20 please
Removed ChangeLog and metadata.xml from Manifest creation and verification.
Can this be closed?
Fixed on or before 2.0.51.22-r1
Looking through the batch of bugs, I'm not sure that some of these are actually fixed in stable. Others, the requirements have possibly changed after the initial fix was committed. If you think this bug has been closed incorrectly, please reopen or ask that it be reopened.
