For my proftpd setup i had to modify the ebuild to compile in softquota support (mod_quotatab). This all works fine but it prevents me from being able to update on a cron job. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge sync 2. emerge -upD world 3. # and my quota support is gone.. Actual Results: My users were pretty happy. Expected Results: I'd like to request for a new "softquota" use flag to be created so that i can update automatically without losing my quota support each time. I've made a mofidied version of the proftpd-1.2.10_rc1-r1 ebuild to support softquotas through a "softquota" use flag. It can be found here: http://www.gogar.com/proftpd-ebuild.txt i'll quote the modified parts so it's more clear what exactly i changed: --------------------------------------------------------- IUSE="ldap pam postgres mysql ssl tcpd ipv6 shaper softquota" MY_P=${P/_/} S=${WORKDIR}/${MY_P} DESCRIPTION="An advanced and very configurable FTP server" SRC_URI="ftp://ftp.proftpd.org/distrib/source/${MY_P}.tar.bz2 shaper? http://www.castaglia.org/${PN}/modules/${PN}-mod-shaper-0.5.2.tar.gz softquota? http://www.castaglia.org/${PN}/modules/${PN}-mod-quotatab-1.2.11.tar.gz" HOMEPAGE="http://www.proftpd.org/" --------------------------------------------------------- and i added: --------------------------------------------------------- if use softquota; then modules="${modules}:mod_quotatab" if use mysql || use postgres; then modules="${modules}:mod_quotatab_sql" elif use ldap; then modules="${modules}:mod_quotatab_file:mod_quotatab_ldap" else modules="${modules}:mod_quotatab_file" fi fi --------------------------------------------------------- It should be obvious where the parts should go. One thing to note is that the version of the mod_quotatab module i use with proftpd-1.2.10 is said to be made for proftpd-1.2.9, but it all seems to work fine. more info on the module can be found here: http://www.castaglia.org/proftpd/#Modules
I have to talk to castiglia (proftpd developer) if this module works with 10_rc1
softquota already comes with 1.2.10_rc versions :) Actually your ebuild does download softquotas old version but does not even unpack it so it never gets used. I am testins rc2 that was released a couple of hours ago, will probably be commiting it in a few minutes. Thanks for the help.
