The ebuild already gets the whole trunk, including the uppbox directory which contains the above Makefile. Check the new ebuild to see how I did it.

Damn! The whole trunk? Isn't that a huge overhead? I would personally tend to checkout only bazaar, examples, reference, tutorial and uppsrc. But in that case, the Makefile could be checked-out as a single file as well, I did not notice it was under svn now.

I also renamed the ebuild to upp-svn, because personally I find it useful to have both a stable and development version installed at the same time. Conflicts are resolved by using 'theide-svn' and '/usr/share/upp-svn'.

Very good idea. I also like to have my 'theide-svn' executable.

You are right, selective checkout is a good idea. It takes quite some time (especially on slow connections) and space to checkout whole trunk. I'm just not sure how to do that in ebuild, but I hope one of you can figure it out Wink

I used to have two versions of theide as well. But the U++ is so stable now, that I stopped feeling the need for "stable" version Smile
