Bug 15193 – recursive dodoc

• Product: Portage Development
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Matt Tucker 2003-02-06 00:37:01 UTC]

I was working on an ebuild for a new package, and wanted to be able to install a
directory of examples without doing too much extra work. So I ended up whipping
a patch (attached) to dodoc that allows it to recursively install doc directories.

I also added a DOCNOCOMPRESS variable which, if non-empty, tells dodoc not to
compress the installed files.

dodoc

this just makes dodoc a wrapper around doins ... why code something twice when
you can do it once ? :)

prepalldocs

of course my new dodoc relies on a correctly working prepalldocs (and well the
current one is pretty broken)

so heres a better one !

prepalldocs

please add this asap

Any progress on this portage team?

Niadda progress wise.  prepalldocs goes recursive, dodoc should have the option also imo.

[Comment 8 Jason Stubbs (RETIRED) 2005-07-28 07:24:54 UTC]

Putting a hold on feature requests for portage as they are drowning out the 
bugs. Most of these features should be available in the next major version of 
portage. But for the time being, they are just drowning out the major bugs and 
delaying the next version's progress. 
 
Any bugs that contain patches and any bugs for etc-update or dispatch-conf can 
be reopened. Sorry, I'm just not good enough with bugzilla. ;)

alternative dodoc patch

My alternative patch - just touches dodoc. Assumes that every argument passed
should be processed, and directories found traversed.
