It still compiles! 14 Jul 2002; phoen][x grub-0.92.ebuild : Added KEYWORDS. 25 Jun 2002; Martin Schlemmer : Add the latest version thanks to good work from (bug #4020) Markus Krainer . Slotified the lot, as well as move splash.xpm.gz to ${FILESDIR}/, as having three seems a bit much. *grub-0.90-r7 (14 July 2002) 29 Sep 2002; Donny Davies grub-0.90-r7.ebuild : Now uses mount-boot eclass; from #7903. 21 Jul 2002; Mark Guertin : updated keywords (-ppc -sparc -sparc64) 14 Jul 2002; phoen][x grub-0.90-r7.ebuild : Added KEYWORDS. *grub-0.90-r4 (8 Mar 2002) *grub-0.91-r3 (8 Mar 2002) 29 Sep 2002; Donny Davies grub-0.91-r3.ebuild : Now uses mount-boot eclass; from #7903. 19 Aug 2002; Sascha Schwabbauer grub-0.91-r3.ebuild : Added -ppc to keywords 14 Jul 2002; phoen][x grub-0.91-r3.ebuild : Added KEYWORDS. 8 Mar 2002; Bruce A. Locke : grub-0.90-r4.ebuild, grub-0.91-r3.ebuild: made check of /etc/fstab not match on commented out entries and added a notice telling users to remove invalid /boot entries from their /etc/fstab (a user had this problem while installing) *grub-0.90-r6 (4 Feb 2002) *grub-0.91-r1 (4 Feb 2002) 4 Feb 2002; Daniel Robbins : grub-0.90-r6.ebuild, grub-0.91-r1.ebuild: unset CFLAGS to ensure that GRUB code is i486-compatible, a good thing for a boot loader. Upgraded /boot mounting code to be compatible with systems without a dedicated /boot filesystem. Tweaked GRUB installation so that the /boot/grub/*stage* files don't get overwritten, since this could mess up the currently-in-the-MBR GRUB. These fixes also close bug #527. *grub-0.90-r5 (4 Feb 2002) 4 Feb 2002; G.Bevin grub-0.90-r5.ebuild, grub-0.91.ebuild : Added new setup function which detects if /boot is mounted or not, in case it's not mounted it will try to do it automatically and in case of a failure exit with an error message. *grub-0.90-r4 (1 Feb 2002) 1 Feb 2002; G.Bevin ChangeLog : Added initial ChangeLog which should be updated whenever the package is updated in any way. This changelog is targetted to users. This means that the comments should well explained and written in clean English. The details about writing correct changelogs are explained in the skel.ChangeLog file which you can find in the root directory of the portage repository.
