Subject: [9fans] cleaning up gentoo plan9port ebuild
Date: Wed,  3 Mar 2010 13:22:00 -0700	[thread overview]

While working on merging and cleaning up the 3 or 4 different portage ebuild
trees for plan9 and plan9port I ran into a number of things which I need
clarified:

* Gentoo's plan9port report's the license as MIT, yet the LICENSE file says it
is Lucent-1.02. Which is correct?

* Gentoo's plan9port also sets DEPEND="x11-apps/xauth".  Is xauth a build or
runtime dependency?

* Am I correct in my understanding that the only two things that the install
configuration ("${PLAN9}/INSTALL -c") do is change the hardwired
/usr/local/plan9 paths, and build the documentation in $PLAN9/dist?

* I've built an updated live ebuild which works directly from the plan9port
mercurial tree.  Is there enough interest to request that this be added to
gentoo portage?

Thanks
