Pkgcore ignores symlinks in /etc/portage/package.keywords

Reported by: sputnick@… Owned by: masterdriverz
Priority: normal Milestone: 0.4.7.5
Component: pkgcore Version: 0.4.7.4
Keywords: Cc:

Description

Not sure if this is intended behavior, but symlinks in /etc/portage/package.keywords are ignored. I have some keyword files linked in from some overlay, Portage can use them, pkgcore doesn't.

Seems to work fine with symlinked files in sets/ though.

  • status changed from new to closed
  • version changed from 0.4.7.2 to 0.4.7.4
  • resolution set to fixed
  • milestone changed from 0.4.7.3 to 0.4.7.5

rev #3507 of my branch properly addresses this via an internal expansion of iter_scan; reason this approach is needed versus 2276 of your branch charlie is that yours will blow up on dangling symlinks.

Plus I prefer tweaking the func it users rather then inlining it into the consumer :)
