[lxc-devel] Gentoo-ebuild for LXC 3.0.0 (was: Gentoo-ebuild for LXC 3.0.0 ./. Python/LUA-bindings

[Jäkel, Guido]

Dear Christian,

thank you for your hint, but this is LXD. I'm talking about plain LXC itself ...


A) To my reading (and knowledge) the current lxd ebuild uses  

	EGO_PN_PARENT="github.com/lxc"
	EGO_PN="${EGO_PN_PARENT}/lxd"
	ARCHIVE_URI="https://${EGO_PN}/archive/${P}.tar.gz -> ${P}.tar.gz"

which resolves to
	
	https://github.com/lxc/lxd/archive/lxd-3.0.0.tar.gz

This should be the official location, right?


But it seems that there's unfortunately some voodoo needed for Go to use *exactly* the same libs and versions as "Upstream / Canonnical" for local compiling.



B) It depends on the LXC build, if USE-Flag 'daemon' is enabled. Without this, LXD is installed without LXC (and probably might be used as a farm controller? I don't use LXD yet ...)

	RDEPEND="
		daemon? (
		[...]
			>=app-emulation/lxc-2.0.7[seccomp]
		[...]
		)
	"

It don't use a Python binding itself.



Greetings

Guido
