I personally think it is fine for missing SRC_URI to not be a fatal error. There are plenty of cases where the source files are in FILESDIR or it's a -9999 package, both of which have no need for a SRC_URI (In reply to comment #1) > I personally think it is fine for missing SRC_URI to not be a fatal error. > > There are plenty of cases where the source files are in FILESDIR or it's a > -9999 package, both of which have no need for a SRC_URI The dev manual defines SRC_URI as a required variable... http://devmanual.gentoo.org/ebuild-writing/variables/index.html Either it's optional or it isn't but something needs to change as the devmanual defines it as required but emerge and repoman don't care at all (not even a warning) if it is missing. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 425848 *** |
