 Posted: Fri Feb 29, 2008 12:15 pm Post subject: Easy manual digest of multiple ebuilds |
 |
|
A One line sed powered command to rebuild the digest of all ebuilds required for the building of a package
Change to directory /usr/portage
then
| Code: |
emerge -pv portage | sed -e 's/\[.*\ \]\ \([^\/]*\)\/\([^-]*\?\)-\([^\ ]*\).*/\1\/\2\/\2-\3.ebuild/g' | xargs -i'{}' ebuild '{}' digest

Excellent idea! Let's redigest every package before installing it so that now all your packages accept the checksums of the rootkit-riddled downloads from the hacked mirror you're using.
Checksums exist for a reason. Don't treat digest failures lightly. |

you don't have your own overlay, do you?
don't be so short minded. i used to maintain my own kde tree, and every time I've to upgrade it was a real pain. I've ended up coding my own python script which generated the digest files for me.
if you use _only_ the official repository, then, this one-liner is not for you. for everyone else, it's almost perfect. |

After trying to upgrade from portage 2.0.x to portage 2.1.x I kept getting all sorts of digest errors on the packages, This has happended multiple times so i have finally put together a quick SED script ( it needs to be cleaned up a little ) but it saves me from having 32 packages that need to be manually re digested due to the new manifest files.
The real trick however is the isolation of \1 \2 \3 so now its trivial to do all sorts of bad things like have portage automatically populate my packages.keywords file
| Code: |
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge -pv #SOME MASKED PACAKGE# | sed -e 's/\[.*\ \]\ \([^\/]*\)\/\([^-]*\?\)-\([^\ ]*\).*/=\1\/\2-\3/g' >> /etc/portage/package.keywords

useful for things like upgrading to the newest gnome for instance.
is this behavious reccomended: no
is it perfectly clean: no
will it save me time : yes |

There was an official supported fix for this, referenced by the news announcement of the final implementation of GLEP 44.

If by officially supported fix, you meant something that didn't work for me, then I already knew about it, and it didn't work for me. The re digesting was done after the manifest221 script was ran. |
