While struggling with an dev-libs/apr issue (https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54214) I realized that it is a non-trivial task to patch an unpacked package source tree. Especially in this case the following patch | Code: | $ cat /etc/portage/patches/dev-libs/apr-1.4.6/test.patch
--- apr-1.4.6/test/Makefile.orig 2012-12-28 15:08:03.679776085 +0100
+++ apr-1.4.6/test/Makefile 2012-12-28 15:13:46.030022380 +0100
@@ -162,6 +162,7 @@
teststatus=0; \
progfailed=""; \
for prog in $(STDTEST_PORTABLE) $(STDTEST_NONPORTABLE); do \
+ ldd ./$$prog \
./$$prog; \
status=$$?; \
if test $$status != 0; then \

can by applied to the dev-libs/apr source files successfully only after the configure step (eg. in opposite to a patch for the config files itself). That's why I'm wondering how the strategy of applying user patches is implemented currently ?
(FWIW - I had to manually change the apr ebuild b/c currently the epatch_user functionality isn't implemented).

epatch_user is applied immediately after the source is unpacked.

Not exactly. It is applied when it is executed by the ebuild. It may be conventional to apply it immediately after the source is unpacked, but there is no technical requirement that the ebuild author will execute it at that time. |
