patch adding gentoo support for the versions of ack in the current tree

Ack does not know gentoo filetypes and therefore can not be "just" used on a portage tree. One could add the filetype in .ackrc or always match all files "-a". But on a gentoo system support for gentoo filetypes should be supported. Maybe this is also something to report upstream.
Comment 1 Henning Schild 2011-03-25 23:02:55 UTC
this may be considered a branding and depend on the USE flag for that
Comment 2 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2011-03-27 14:23:24 UTC
no, this doesnt qualify as branding
Comment 3 Torsten Veller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-04-11 11:44:25 UTC
Added to ack-1.94-r1. Thanks
