NAME CPANPLUS::Dist::Gentoo - CPANPLUS backend generating Gentoo ebuilds. VERSION Version 0.01 SYNOPSIS cpan2dist --format=CPANPLUS::Dist::Gentoo \ --dist-opts overlay=/usr/local/portage \ --dist-opts distdir=/usr/portage/distfiles \ --dist-opts manifest=yes \ Any::Module You::Like DESCRPITON This module is a CPANPLUS backend that recursively generates Gentoo ebuilds for a given package in the specified overlay (defaults to "/usr/local/portage"), update the manifest, and even emerge it (together with its dependencies) if the user requires it. You need write permissions on the directory where Gentoo fetches its source files (usually "/usr/portage/distfiles"). The generated ebuilds are placed into the section "perl-cpanp". They favour depending on "perl-core" or "dev-perl" rather than "perl-cpanp". METHODS All the methods are inherited from CPANPLUS::Dist::Base. Please refer to its perldoc for precise information on what's done at each step. DEPENDENCIES Gentoo (). CPANPLUS, IPC::Cmd (core modules since 5.9.5). File::Path (since 5.001), File::Copy (5.002), File::Spec::Functions (5.00504). SEE ALSO cpan2dist. CPANPLUS::Dist::Base, CPANPLUS::Dist::Deb, CPANPLUS::Dist::Mdv. AUTHOR Vincent Pit, "", .
