OK, to completely stop the FUD, I'm offering $25 to the first person that provides proof that ULE is wrongly updating their package (stable branch only). So there it is, my money is where my mouth is.
Thanks

I have a problem to update an svn live ebuild. Output with debug setting to true:
| Code: |
sulaco ule # update-live-ebuilds scummvm
Found variable CATEGORY for
Found variable PN for
Found variable SLOT for
games-engines/scummvm:0 uses the subversion SCM.
Sourcing ULE_INFO
Attempting to check if games-engines/scummvm:0 needs an update.
Emerge is the portage compatible installer
Dropping privileges for games-engines/scummvm:0.
Found variable ESVN_REPO_URI for games-engines/scummvm:0
Newhash empty, this should never happen unless errors that wern't caught previously
Update complete
|
git and darcs seems to working. I tried to reemerge update-live-ebuild, unmerged scummvm, remerged it, removed the ule database and so on. Nothing worked.
Regards

OK, few problems here.
1) What behaviour are you seeing. I know this newhash empty problem, this is usually caused by a server timeing out and subversion doesn't exit with an error. This is really a svn problem, and it's really dumb that they haven't fixed it yet.
2) I need an ebuild so I can test this problem.
Thanks. |

Here it is  It's a slightly modified ebuild from portage to use live svn. |

Well, as I said earlier, it's not a ule bug, but a svn bug. I have inserted some code in the trunk to workaround any problem svn might have. Please let me know if it doesn't work.
Thanks! |

Hmm - if I try to install update-live-ebuilds on a freshly installed machine I get this error:
| Code: | >>> Unpacking source...

Getting the repository manually with "git clone" is no problem at all ...
Anyone familiar with this?

Yes, you have a directory under ${DISTFILES}/git-src/update-live-ebuilds which isn't a git directory. Probably an empty directory or something. |

Those are a product of limitation of sudo, I may figure out a way to fix it in the future, but as far as I can tell they're harmless warnings anyhow. I've never had a problem with them. |

Yup.
It seems to be related to changes in the ebuild or in something - after forcing an update, it works correctly again.

|

As it would probably be no surprise to most, I'm (probably) not going to be doing any more updates to update-live-ebuilds; it works for me for most purposes, though the landscape there are things which would make maintenance of this script nearly impossible for a scripting slob like me. 
Things such as:
* KDE4 (kde overlay) scm ebuilds are probably very incompatible with the script.
* http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_b0ad811dbdc44357321cd18ef2b99be8.xml
* http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/msg_3d83b37aa7296389731c53656cf335fa.xml
* My computer time being totally obliterated by (impending) divorce and work.
So, in the longview, things ule have done in the past will be come more integrated into the package manager (yay!), but for now ule will continue to work for 99% of purposes.
Of course, maintainers wanted, ownership would be easy to transfer.
Thanks, it's been alot of fun for those who paid attention |

If ULE development is stopping, and at a possibly unusable state (he mentioned kde svn being one of them), what are our alternatives? Are there other scripts, commands, or other tools to replace this?

As far as I understood portage-2.2 will cover quite a few features of update-live-ebuilds ...

Only the rebuild part and AFAIK not as good yet.
update-live-ebuilds only rebuilds if the upstream repo has been updated, but emerge @rebuild-live (or what it is called, I cannot remeber) rebuilds everything that inherits a repo eclass without checking if it has been updated.
I know there was talk about implementing these checks in portage too, but I do not know if they ever came around doing it. |

Hi! Today got some errors from this tool like that:
| Code: |
This is an assertion, you probably have a corrupt portage database for dir
|
and seems like thats because of recent changes in the portage or bash. Here is the patch that does everything well again:
http://narod.ru/disk/14714353000/ule-extract_env.patch.bz2.html
I also sent that patch to the original author - hope it commits it to the git and everyone can update from that too.. |

Nope, upstream seems a bit dead, or slow or what you want to call it.

Well, with Avuton we seems like don't agree on some little details on how exactly to do what is done in the patch.. I have little motivation to spend more time and efforts on this taking into account this already working fine and this ULE tool is temporary anyway and gentoo will have someday some official support for such functionality.. So seems like this will be just in a form of the patch for now.. |

| Yeah, motivation is gone for this utility, as I don't use Gentoo anywhere anymore. Hopefully someone picks it up but I'm not going to take some crap patch that uses temp files, etc... It can easily be done cleanly, like the rest of the script would do. At any rate, if anyone wants to submit such a patch to me feel free. |

Yea, that is just your personal opinion anyway.. I'd understood if something would be changed whether that would be temp files or something else.. But its really doesn't matter.. |
