Description Paul Bredbury 2006-11-23 05:55:39 UTC

Hi, here is an ebuild for the live git checkout of cairo, as a diff.

Dunno if you want to add it to the tree or not, but if you do, here it is :)

No. I don't like live checkout ebuilds since they're completely unpredictable. You might emerge it and complain it doesn't work. An hour later I'll emerge it and it's fine.

Comment 3 Paul Bredbury 2006-11-23 09:07:50 UTC

That's the nature of the beast. The ebuild would be un-keyworded (KEYWORDS="-*"), and thus unsupported, like others in Portage:

find /usr/portage/ -name \*-9999.ebuild
