Hi,
I have ebuilds fetching the source code directly from a repository
(be it CVS,SVN,HG,GIT,...)
I'd like to modify the .ebuild to enter compilation only if something
has been updated.
Is this possible, has somebody else tried to do so?
Given that portage relies on USE flags and version numbers to decide on
whether a rebuild is necessary, no, it's not possible.
But I'd be interested too if someone could think of some clever hack to
accomplish this :)
