[gentoo-dev] [PATCH] multilib.eclass: get_exeext for mingw/cygwin exe suffix, #588330

2016-07-21 Thread Michał Górny
Add a get_exeext function that can be used to obtain executable program
suffix specific to the platform, in line with get_libname and
get_modname. It is necessary to correctly reference built programs on
non-standard platforms where executables use some suffix (like .exe).

I've been working towards becomming a gentoo developer for while now
in order to bring the sparc port up to speed with the rest of the
gentoo project. In short there appear to be no active gentoo
developers working on sparc.

I had a mentor earlier this year, but i can no longer get in touch
with him.

I have both quizzes nearly complete, i just need someone to look over
them and answer a question or two. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.



Alex, it would be helpful to list your timezone and normal availability
times. That will help potential mentors know if they match up
availability times.

Aside from sparc related updates, is there any other areas of the 
ebuild

tree your more interested in like desktop environments, gnome, kde,
*box, networking, tools...


My timezone is EDT, pretty much available 10AM to 2AM EDT

Most of my interests will be related to server and / or networking type 
issues. I also have some interest in fixing up things like genkernel on 
other archs.

I run this on a 'production' VPS. If anyone else wants to co-maintain
this, hit me up. Otherwise, I'll begin handling bugs and metadata on Monday.
