Bug 91286 – gentoolkit-0.2.1_pre2 equery replaces etcat

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Portage Development

[Description Hanno Zysik (geki) 2005-05-03 03:23:18 UTC]

Updated gentoolkit to 0.2.1_pre2. The tool etcat is now deprecated and equery misses old looks of etcat. It does, as well, not look for specific package name. It just takes the argument as substring of package string.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. equery list -p -o gcc
2. /usr/share/doc/gentoolkit-0.2.1_pre2/deprecated/etcat/etcat -v gcc
3.

Actual Results:  
anomalie portage # equery list -p -o gcc

Expected Results:  
That 'equery list -p -o argument' shows output as old 'etcat -v argument'.
Thanks! Let's see if I can do patch it.

[Comment 1 Hanno Zysik (geki) 2005-05-03 05:54:40 UTC]

Created attachment 57916 [details, diff]
exact packagename and sorted matches

somehow, package names like gcc-blah show up but looking for gcc. same for
glib-perl and glib.
output was unsorted as well.

[Comment 2 Chris Smith 2005-05-07 08:45:00 UTC]

Etcat should be "un-deprecated" until equery problems are fixed.
Bug#: 69456 is another equery problem.

[Comment 3 Hanno Zysik (geki) 2005-05-07 09:38:51 UTC]

at least for this bug i attached a patch.
i will have a look for the other one.

[Comment 4 Paul Varner (RETIRED) 2005-10-12 23:26:58 UTC]

This will be fixed in gentoolkit-0.2.1

[Comment 5 Paul Varner (RETIRED) 2005-10-13 15:08:05 UTC]

Fix is in subversion.

[Comment 6 Paul Varner (RETIRED) 2006-01-17 19:15:20 UTC]

Fixed in gentoolkit-0.2.1
