Good plan. That's how I was doing it, then I got a bit carried away with trying to not duplicate any of the kernel-2 eclass, but you're right, it turned out horrible. I've replaced the relevant kernel-2 function now, which is much nicer. > Also, is that really the best way of generating SRC_URI? Can't you > remove the need to put anything in ebuilds? I think it is the best way, unless you have a specific reason not to. This way the different kernel ebuilds need very little modification to use the libre base. Thanks for the feedback. Anything else at all would be welcome.
