Bug 36361 – leafnode2 alpha ebuild

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Torsten Veller (RETIRED) 2003-12-23 05:51:08 UTC]

** leafnode-2.0.0.alpha20031221a **


Ebuild for the latest work-in-progress version of leafnode. 
(It is connected with bug #25713.)

Please take a look at:
- keepdir /var/spool/news/...
  These directories shouldn't get deleted. So this way is the correct one.
- chown -R news:news /var/spool/news/
  This must be the correct place for the chown, right?
- mkdir -p /var/lib/news
  this part was deleted from former ebuilds - i don't know what it was used for.
- S="${WORKDIR}/leafnode-2.0.0.alpha20031221a"
  how to get this more implicit? remove the version number? (the 'a' is a problem)
- LICENSE="LGPL-2.1"
  is this the only license that must get mentioned?


As this is work-in-progress it should be masked and while
net-news/leafnode-2.0.0_alpha20031028 doesn't work at all it should be replaced.

After upgrading from net-news/leafnode-2.0.0_alpha20030621.ebuild copy the files
from /var/lib/spool/news to /var/spool/news (untested, but i think the
message.id directory can be omitted - these files get hardlinked again by
texpire) and run texpire -r as the ebuild states.

Have a lot of fun.

*grr* chown must be changed:
chown -R news:news /var/spool/news --> chown -R news:news ${D}/var/spool/news
                                                         ^^^^
