Rerun kernel config check for all packages?

[Ghett_Klapson]

Hello all!

Currently configuring kernel from `allnoconfig`, is there a way to run kernel config checks for all the packages in the world set? Or will I have to do some scripting to run `ebuild <thing-###.ebuild> pretend` for everything?

Thanks a lot!

I don't think there's a way to do what you're asking, you can use grep -r CONFIG_CHECK /var/db/pkg/ command.
Another way is create a script like this (NOT TESTED):

Code: Select all

for i in $(grep -lr CONFIG_CHECK /var/db/pkg/ | cut -d'/' -f5-); do
    awk '/CONFIG_/{print}' <(ebuild $(equery w $(dirname ${i})) setup);
    ebuild $(equery w $(dirname ${i})) clean
done

The ebuild setup should show you if a kernel config is uset and clean remove sources from /var/tmp/portage .

This script is based on [profile=283094]khayyam[/profile] idea proposed on [post=7786514]this post[/post].

Thanks for linking me that post. I searched every combination of check, kernel, and config I could think of and couldn't find that...

This question periodically pops up on the forum.
There is an opened bug for this subject : https://bugs.gentoo.org/532674

I found the previous code to download the sources. The fix was to add FEATURES=noauto and --skip-manifest to basically only do the checks.

Hope you find this version useful (also posting in the bug report):

Code: Select all

grep -lr CONFIG_CHECK /var/db/pkg/ \
	| sed 's|^/var/db/pkg/||' \
	| sort \
	| xargs dirname \
	| xargs equery which \
	| while read eb; do
	echo -en "\n>>> Checking ${eb}:\n\n"
	FEATURES=noauto ebuild ${eb} --skip-manifest setup
	ebuild ${eb} clean
done
