As rarian is used for ages, the stuff in eclass prepared to workaround problems with scrollkeeper-update could be dropped because the rarian compat script doesn't do anything This could be dropped: # if this is not present, scrollkeeper-update may segfault and # create bogus directories in /var/lib/ local sk_tmp_dir="/var/lib/scrollkeeper" dodir "${sk_tmp_dir}" || die "dodir failed" [...] # Do not keep /var/lib/scrollkeeper because: # 1. The scrollkeeper database is regenerated at pkg_postinst() # 2. ${ED}/var/lib/scrollkeeper contains only indexes for the current pkg # thus it makes no sense if pkg_postinst ISN'T run for some reason. rm -rf "${ED}${sk_tmp_dir}" rmdir "${ED}/var/lib" 2>/dev/null rmdir "${ED}/var" 2>/dev/null But I am unsure about this: emake DESTDIR="${D}" "scrollkeeper_localstate_dir=${ED}${sk_tmp_dir} " "$@" install || die "install failed"
Maybe we could finally try to drop all the scrollkeeper stuff from eapi6 gnome2_src_install. I wonder if this could also be dropped just now for all eapis as scrollkeeper-update from rarian (the only provider for years in the tree) simply does nothing
