Description SpanKY gentoo-dev

2002-10-23 08:59:39 UTC

so i have this code in my ebuild ...

if [ `use static` ] ; then
    SRC_URI="static target"
    S="${WORKDIR}/static"
else
    SRC_URI="dyn target"
    S="${WORKDIR}/dyn"
fi

if i run these commands, they dont work like they should ...
env USE=-static ebuild <ebuild> install
env USE=static ebuild <ebuild> install

whichever command i run first, i guess that S value gets cached and not properly
regenerated ...
if you want, i can post an example ebuild to reproduce this behavior
and i have portage 2.0.41

You need to put conditionals inside the SRC_URI like:

SRC_URI="static? http://static : http://dynamic"

The SRC_URI gets cached, and if you use a standard bash conditional then only
one of the conditions gets cached.
