Maybe this goes against the philosphy of the build script, but couldn't you use rsync instead of taring and untaring? This would help with a use case where our users are complaining about having to tar and untar big things, like the kernel-source, when doing development. We could just treat their Subversion workareas as the overlay directory and overlay it where kernel-source.tar.bz2 would be untarred normally. This would necessitate specifying the root of the overlay in the chroot though, so may make this overcomplicated.
I could use that for Qt too: --overlay <source path>[ = <target path>] where <target path> defaults to / but would often be /usr/src/packages/BUILD David -- "Don't worry, you'll be fine; I saw it work in a cartoon once..." -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
