[gentoo-dev] Project:Libbash up for grabs

2018-01-02 Thread Michał Górny
Hi, everyone. Due to the last member retiring, the libbash project [1] is now up for grabs. However, given that the project is dead for a very long time now I don't really think there's a point in keeping it alive. If nobody joins in 14 days, I'll remove the project and move the links from it int

[gentoo-dev] [PATCH 3/3] multiprocesing.eclass: Remove redirect_alloc_fd

2018-01-02 Thread Michał Górny
Remove the redirect_alloc_fd function that is no longer used since the removal of multijob* functions. The function is complex, has little potential use and an equivalent functionality is built-in in newer bash versions, making it completely unnecessary for EAPI 6. --- eclass/multiprocessing.eclas

[gentoo-dev] [PATCH 2/3] multiprocessing.eclass: Remove bashpid function

2018-01-02 Thread Michał Górny
Remove the bashpid function that is not used anywhere after the removal of multijob* logic. The unprefixed name can be quite confusing, and the function itself is rather unlikely to be useful. --- eclass/multiprocessing.eclass | 17 - 1 file changed, 17 deletions(-) diff --git a/e

[gentoo-dev] [PATCH 1/3] multiprocessing.eclass: Remove multijob_* functions

2018-01-02 Thread Michał Górny
Remove the multijob functions that were used to run bash code in parallel. The code was very complex, fragile and unmaintained. It has been used scarcely, and pretty much by a single developer. It gave very little gain, usually at the cost of losing readability and violating PMS. Closes: https://b

[gentoo-dev] [PATCH] versionator.eclass: inherit estack rather than eutils.

2018-01-02 Thread Ulrich Müller
The only functions needed from the eutils.eclass are eshopts_push and eshopts_pop, which have been split off to estack.eclass. See also commit 401ef96525d8c21c33bdd6e88e475e09f3a42717 (in historical.git) which added the eutils inherit. --- eclass/versionator.eclass | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 ins
