Ebuild for Gentoo

[David...@sony.com]

Hi,

I'm planning on adding a Gentoo package for minijail based off the ebuild in the one included in chromiumos[1]:

https://gist.github.com/dcoles/1c24ad0fe41dbab9995254ec8cb3ca6a

Please let me know if you have any feedback or concerns before we upstream it.

1. https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/overlays/chromiumos-overlay/+/master/chromeos-base/minijail/minijail-9999.ebuild

Cheers,

that SRC_URI won't work due to a long standing bug in gitiles where the generated archives aren't stable.  i don't think there's a public bug about it, but you can see yourself by running wget a few times (with a 1sec delay).

the archive will have to be mirrored manually.

That's unfortunate. Thanks for pointing it out though.

I'll ask for it to be added to the Gentoo mirrors and make sure we always pull from there (unless by chance the Linux releases are already mirrored on https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromeos-localmirror ?).

Cheers,
David

unfortunately that is the only option atm. i was hoping minijail was
mirrored to github somewhere but doesn't look like it.

i see Android has https://github.com/aosp-mirror/, but it doesn't have
all repos. let me poke some people internally to see if we can get
minijail mirrored there.

they are not. in CrOS, we build from the git repos directly rather
than specific tags/releases.

thanks to Jorge we were able to get a mirror set up here:
https://github.com/google/minijail

with the v9 release here:
https://github.com/google/minijail/releases/tag/linux-v9

so you should be able to pull stable tarballs from there.

we'll see if we can't get the repo touched up a bit more ... there's a
crap ton of auto-generated tags (thanks Android) that we don't care
about.

Awesome. Thank you very much for following up. That's great we can mirror from GitHub.

I did notice that. :) Took a bit of scrolling to find the Linux tags.

Just a heads up - the ebuild has landed in the Gentoo repository:

https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=9981dc903cb650313d13401a99c193be7a8cb4ee

Thanks again for your help.

Cheers,
David
