DESCRIPTION="Based on the ${ECLASS} eclass"

# This function generate linker scripts in /usr/lib for dynamic
# libs in /lib.  This is to fix linking problems when you have
# the .so in /lib, and the .a in /usr/lib.  What happens is that
# in some cases when linking dynamic, the .a in /usr/lib is used
# instead of the .so in /lib due to gcc/libtool tweaking ld's
# library search path.  This cause many builds to fail.
# See bug #4411 for more info.
#
# To use, simply call:
#
#   gen_usr_ldscript libfoo.so
#
# Note that you should in general use the unversioned name of
# the library, as ldconfig should usually update it correctly
# to point to the latest version of the library present.

# This function is for bulk patching, or in theory for just one
# or two patches.
#
# It should work with .bz2, .gz, .zip and plain text patches.
# Currently all patches should be the same format.
#
# You do not have to specify '-p' option to patch, as it will
# try with -p0 to -p5 until it succeed, or fail at -p5.
#
# Above EPATCH_* variables can be used to control various defaults,
# bug they should be left as is to ensure an ebuild can rely on
# them for.
#
# Patches are applied in current directory.
#
# Bulk Patches should preferibly have the form of:
#
#   ??_${ARCH}_foo.${EPATCH_SUFFIX}
#
# For example:
#
#   01_all_misc-fix.patch.bz2
#   02_sparc_another-fix.patch.bz2
#
# This ensures that there are a set order, and you can have ARCH
# specific patches.
#
# If you however give an argument to epatch(), it will treat it as a
# single patch that need to be applied if its a file.  If on the other
# hand its a directory, it will set EPATCH_SOURCE to this.

# new convenience patch wrapper function to eventually replace epatch(), 
# $PATCHES, $PATCHES1, src_unpack:patch, src_unpack:autopatch and 
# /usr/bin/patch
# Features:
# - bulk patch handling similar to epatch()'s
# - automatic patch level detection like epatch()'s
# - automatic patch uncompression like epatch()'s
# - doesn't have the --dry-run overhead of epatch() - inspects patchfiles 
#   manually instead
# - once I decide it's production-ready, it'll be called from base_src_unpack
#   to handle $PATCHES to avoid defining src_unpack just to use xpatch

# accepts zero or more parameters specifying patchfiles and/or patchdirs

# known issues:
# - only supports unified style patches (does anyone _really_ use anything 
#   else?)
# - because it doesn't use --dry-run there is a risk of it failing
#   to find the files to patch, ie detect the patchlevel, properly. It doesn't use
#   any of the backup heuristics that patch employs to discover a filename.
#   however, this isn't dangerous because if it works for the developer who's
#   writing the ebuild, it'll always work for the users, and if it doesn't,
#   then we'll fix it :-)
# - no support as yet for patches applying outside $S (and not directly in $WORKDIR).
