When I tried to ecopy www-servers/lighttpd, I found the generated ebuild directory lacks the subdirectories under www-servers/lighttpd/files/ Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. cd ~/Gentoo/usr/local/portage 2. ecopy www-servers/lighttpd 3. cd www-servers/lighttpd/files 4. ls -F Actual Results: lighttpd.conf lighttpd.logrotate mod_fastcgi.conf-1.4.13-r2 lighttpd.confd mime-types.conf spawn-fcgi.confd lighttpd.initd-1.4.13-r3 mod_cgi.conf spawn-fcgi.initd Expected Results: 1.4.16/ 1.4.18-r3/ conf/ lighttpd.logrotate 1.4.18/ 1.4.19/ lighttpd.confd spawn-fcgi.confd 1.4.18-r1/ 1.4.19-r1/ lighttpd.initd spawn-fcgi.initd 1.4.18-r2/ 1.4.19-r2/ lighttpd.initd-1.4.13-r3 I checked the source code of ecopy, and found that it is using the lines containing "${FILESDIR}" in ebuilds to fetch the mentioned files. Because lighttpd's ebuilds use "${FILESDIR}"/"${PVR}" to point a bunch of files, they are ignored by ecopy. Maybe it is better to use the Manifest file to get filenames to copy? $ emerge --info Portage 2.2.00.10385-prefix (default-prefix/darwin/macos/10.5/x86, gcc-4.0.1, unavailable, 9.2.2 i386) ================================================================= System uname: 9.2.2 i386 i386 Timestamp of tree: Fri, 23 May 2008 04:51:31 +0000 distcc 2.18.5-Apple.1 powerpc-apple-darwin9.0 (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ccache version 2.4 [disabled] app-shells/bash: 3.2_p33 dev-lang/python: 2.5.2-r2 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r7 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.61-r01.1 sys-devel/automake: 1.10.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.26 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86-macos" CBUILD="i686-apple-darwin9" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -march=nocona" CHOST="i686-apple-darwin9" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="" DISTDIR="/Users/hongqn/Gentoo/usr/portage/distfiles" EPREFIX="/Users/hongqn/Gentoo" FEATURES="collision-protect distlocks nostrip parallel-fetch preserve-libs sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo" LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="" MAKEOPTS="-j3" PKGDIR="/Users/hongqn/Gentoo/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/Users/hongqn/Gentoo/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/Users/hongqn/Gentoo/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/Users/hongqn/Gentoo/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.prefix.freens.org/gentoo-portage-prefix" USE="aqua coreaudio cracklib midi mmx mmxext ncurses nls objc objc++ prefix readline sse sse2 ssl unicode x86-macos zlib" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" ELIBC="Darwin" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse" KERNEL="Darwin" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" USERLAND="GNU" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
Created attachment 154035 [details, diff] patch for ecopy script to download all aux files I wrote a rough patch for ecopy script to download all AUX files mentioned in Manifest file.
(In reply to comment #1) > I wrote a rough patch for ecopy script to download all AUX files mentioned in > Manifest file. This is a bad thing for the prefix tree. In lighttpd's case, we don't want ALL the files. We only want ${FILESDIR}/${PVR} not the rest of the dirs. Make sense?
/me should check his email first ;-) Basically, I agree with grobian[1]. And I don't really have a better idea for how to accomplish this ATM, although I *do* think it is a good idea. [1]: http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-alt/msg_2b168af02a294179508b6e4f115f8d18.xml
Created attachment 157961 [details, diff] a patch to get files in subdirectory I met this problem and wrote a patch, then found this bug. This patch doesn't get all files in FILES. A problem in this patch is that it depends on the url. (--cut-dirs=6) But at the current ecopy, url is hard coded. so, i think it's ok for now.
ok, looks good. As far as I understand the patch, it is just set up to fetch all entries listed in "files" directory and go recursive if that entry happens to be a directory, right? If that's the idea, I'm happy to apply it.
(In reply to comment #4) > Created an attachment (id=157961) [edit] > a patch to get files in subdirectory Even though this user isn't CC'd on the bug, I thought I should chime in here. Definately will not apply as this patch will break things. eg: %% wget -nv -nH --cut-dirs=6 -x --no-glob -P files http://prefix.gentooexperimental.org/rsync-gentoo-x86/www-servers/lighttpd/files/1.4.19-r2/03_all_lighttpd-1.4.11-errorlog-pipe.diff 2008-09-15 11:02:36 URL:http://prefix.gentooexperimental.org/rsync-gentoo-x86/www-servers/lighttpd/files/1.4.19-r2/03_all_lighttpd-1.4.11-errorlog-pipe.diff [5267/5267] -> "files/03_all_lighttpd-1.4.11-errorlog-pipe.diff" [1] %% ls files/ 03_all_lighttpd-1.4.11-errorlog-pipe.diff It lost the subdir completely. We will need a better solution, unfortunetly, I don't have one right now.

Same here! It's particularly annoying when ecopying emacs' modes not in prefix
target the right people/herd
This bug is eligable for a WONTFIX anyway, as ecopy is just a hack, and we should be close to get rid of it. darkside, to you the decision.
