edo.eclass

Name

edo.eclass -- Convenience function to run commands verbosely and die on failure

Description

This eclass provides the 'edo' command, and an 'edob' variant for ebegin/eend, which logs the command used verbosely and dies (exits) on failure.

This eclass should be used only where needed to give a more verbose log, e.g. for invoking non-standard ./configure scripts, or building objects/binaries directly within ebuilds via compiler invocations. It is NOT to be used in place of generic 'command || die' where verbosity is unnecessary.
