Created attachment 174178 [details, diff] Patch for hamlib-1.2.7.1.ebuild to produce new hamlib-1.2.8.ebuild Above patch converts hamlib-1.2.7.1.ebuild into the new one for hamlib-1.2.8.ebuild. I made the following changes: - Enable the usage of the rpc-backends as new feature for the user. (That requires '-j1' for correct build) - simplified installation command in src_install() - Dropped installation of man3 files if USE="doc" wrt bug #247215 Tom, you desire to maintain this one as well? Added & added you as maintainer. FYI: I don't like the logic of USE=tcl mainly because USE=python brings it in anyway. This is deceiving to the end users, please consider revising the logic on the next bump. Thanks. (In reply to comment #3) > Added & added you as maintainer. ok. Thanks. > > FYI: I don't like the logic of USE=tcl mainly because USE=python brings it in > anyway. What about USE="tcl -python"? Assumed someone would like only the tcl-bindings, not the python ones. But sure, upstream is also unlucky about that linkage. Solution for that is on long term plan. (In reply to comment #4) > What about USE="tcl -python"? Assumed someone would like only the tcl-bindings, > not the python ones. hmm, yea. I don't have an answer atm. It is just annoying to see a tcl USE flag but it is irrelavent if +python. Although, I guess it is technically correct. *shrugs* |
