Hi everyone,
A while back, vapier added some tests for the toolchain-funcs eclass to
/usr/portage/eclass/tests/. I really like the idea, and I recently
discovered an xUnit-style unit-testing framework for shell scripts
called ShUnit2. I played with it a little and made a couple of
prototypes.

I'm not writing new ebuilds from scratch or changing SRC_URI of existing
ebuilds so often (especially those with this particular requirement)
that there's any meaningful barrier to using ar
ngs about ebuilds is that they're very natural to
write in most cases, if you can manage to build the program by hand.
Raising this barrier of entry for questionable benefit seems like a bad
idea. We don't need to make it any harder to begin contributing to
Gentoo.
