* Add support for FEATURES="protect-owned" which is identical to theZac Medico2008-08-301-4/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | collision-protect feature except that files may be overwritten if they are not explicitly listed in the contents of a currently installed package. This is particularly useful on systems that have lots of orphan files that have been left behind by older versions of portage that did not support the unmerge-orphans feature. The additional tolerance makes this feature more suitable than collision-protect for being enabled by default. In order to ensure smooth operation of protect-owned in all cases, we also have to set COLLISION_IGNORE="/lib/modules" since files inside this directory are never unmerge. By enabling protect-owned by default, users are protected from problems that may occur due interactions with file collisions and the unmerge-orphans feature which is also enabled by default. svn path=/main/trunk/; revision=11479
* Bug #172496 - Add a PORTAGE_COMPRESS_EXCLUDE_SUFFIXES config variable whichZac Medico2008-08-151-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | is used to filter ecompress arguments. This allows the user to control compression of files installed dodoc, excluding files with specific suffix patterns.

* Bug #233077 - Add QA check which verifies that LDFLAGS are respected. For nowZac Medico2008-07-271-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | this only works when LDFLAGS contains --hash-style=gnu since in this case the the elf files should not contain .hash sections and we can use scanelf to check whether or not the those sections exist. This adds a QA_DT_HASH variable that is analogous to existing QA control variables documented in the ebuild.5 man page. There is also a complementary QA_STRICT_DT_HASH variable that can be set in make.conf in order to ignore QA_DT_HASH settings in ebuilds. Thanks to Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis for this patch which I've tweaked in just a few minor ways. svn path=/main/trunk/; revision=11205
* Reduce the default PORTAGE_IONICE_COMMAND priority to "idle" priority sinceZac Medico2008-07-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | it's probably suitable for most people. This way, even when the IO load is very high, the impact on system responsiveness should be practically unnoticeable. svn path=/main/trunk/; revision=11193

| | | | | | | | | to adjust ionice priority, similar to PORTAGE_NICENESS but used more like FETCHCOMMAND since so that portage doesn't have to know anything about ionice options. The command should include a \${PID} place-holder to be substituted with an integer pid. svn path=/main/trunk/; revision=11182

* * Make portdbapi.aux_get() automatically pull pre-generated metadataZac Medico2008-04-211-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | directly from the metadata/cache/ directory when metadata-transfer is not enabled in FEATURES. This makes all cache modules behave similar to existing metadata_overlay module, except when FEATURES="metadata-transfer" has been explicitly enabled. * Remove metadata-transfer from FEATURES in make.globals so that it's no longer enabled by default. Users will be happy about this since the "Updating Portage cache" part of emerge --sync can be more time consuming than the rsync run itself. It's also nicer when when using PORTDIR over nfs or bind mounted in a chroot since there's no need to run emerge --metadata. * Update FEATURES="metadata-transfer" docs to warn users of the rsync tree to modify eclases in PORTDIR_OVERLAY if necessary instead of doing it directly in the rsync tree. * Relevant updates to /etc/portage/modules docs. svn path=/main/trunk/; revision=9930
