Thanks to all. I was unable to reply before. Tom Wesley wrote: > > I would create an overlay directory and copy to ebuilds there, that way > you can version bump your overlay as the main portage tree gets updated.
I was replying that it is a good idea but it has a disadvantage when I realized I was confused about of overlay dir in portage. I thought that if created the same entry in overlay, emerge never look in portage tree for more recent updates, and then I had to keep watching the changes in portage tree. Thank you for let me know my mistake. I made a change in my bashrc script for if I forgot to patch a new update. if [ "${EBUILD_PHASE}" == "clean" -a "${EBUILD:0:${#PORTDIR_OVERLAY}}" != "${PORTDIR_OVERLAY}" ] && /bin/grep -q "${CATEGORY}/${PN}" /etc/portage/package.inoverlay then read -p "Ya parchaste el paquete? [s/N]" -n 1 Q /bin/echo [ "$Q" != "s" ] && /bin/kill $$ fi grettings jose a.r. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
