currently lintool will not follow inheritence trees and this causes false failures. this is a patch that will cause inherited eclasses to be included in the lintool checking. they are not processed separately, but rather included like a #include in C. this patch won't include a given eclass twice. i believe this is the correct behavior, but maybe it doesn't matter.

Comment on attachment 5095 [details, diff] patch to parse parent classes for ebuilds this patch is against the lintool from gentoolkit-0.1.17-r1
Ehm. I forgot to tell you that lintool now lives in the lintool cvs module. Can you do a diff against it ? It's available from: cvs -d :ext:karltk@cvs.gentoo.org:/space/gentoo/cvsroot co lintool Lintool now exists as dev-util/lintool
Created attachment 5235 [details, diff] patch to include inherited ebuilds this is a patch against dev-util/lintool-0.2.3
Could you just go ahead and apply it to the lintool cvs module (it exists in its own module, alongside gentoo-src, gentoo-x86, gentoolkit and others).
old bug, accidently assigned to ppc, marking invalid, because lintool-0.2.4 is already out.
