ebuilds must not fetch sources themselves unless PROPERTIES="live" is set (In reply to Mike Gilbert from comment #2) > ebuilds must not fetch sources themselves unless PROPERTIES="live" is set I don't think it's INVALID as a bug? It's a heads-up for a bump which ahsn't happened yet.

Although there currently is not a maintainer, I just wanted to lay the groundwork in Bug to help whomever might assume the role. Probably, the upstream owner should be contacted and persuaded not to pull in other repositories in his Makefile. Thanks Sam. > Probably, the upstream owner should be contacted and persuaded not to pull in other repositories in his Makefile. Thanks Sam.
Actually the makefile can just be patched by the ebuild in order to remove the repositories from the Makefile, and then specific commits or tagged commits of those repositories could be added to the Portage SRC_URI as tar.gz.

Well, yeah. There's a lot of different options in theory, but what John said is still right. They should be persuaded to not do that. |
