The handbook has no information about "USE_LINUX_RPM=yes".
If I set that it appears the ports framework will ignore MASTER_SITES.

Should I dig into the MK framework to see how to change the repository or should I use the .tar.xz distribution instead? :(.
I'm not sure. But would having a look at the way emulators/linux_base-c(6|7)
provide some clues?


Not really but I think I found something in Mk/Uses/linux.mk:

For the case of USE_LINUX_RPM it is supposed to not do anything when MASTER_SITES is defined but it is somewhat messy, and somehow it always uses ${MASTER_SITE_CENTOS_LINUX}. Any port that uses RPM but not the Centos repositories?

Just a thought, and hope it helps!

Thanks, I just have to keep digging :(.

Pedro.
