poudriere merging multiple ports trees

[Henrik Rosenke]

Greetings,

UIDs and GIDs are also not resprected, i could solve this via this patch:

Index: Mk/bsd.port.mk
===================================================================
--- Mk/bsd.port.mk      (Revision 563120)
+++ Mk/bsd.port.mk      (Arbeitskopie)
@@ -1274,8 +1274,17 @@
  # where 'make config' records user configuration options
  PORT_DBDIR?=   /var/db/ports

+# add support for overlaying UIDs and GIDs, dont include them if they 
dont exist
+.if exists(${OVERLAYS}/UIDs)
+UID_FILES?=    ${OVERLAYS}/UIDs ${PORTSDIR}/UIDs
+.else
  UID_FILES?=    ${PORTSDIR}/UIDs
+.endif
+.if exists(${OVERLAYS}/GIDs)
+GID_FILES?=    ${OVERLAYS}/GIDs ${PORTSDIR}/GIDs
+.else
  GID_FILES?=    ${PORTSDIR}/GIDs
+.endif
  UID_OFFSET?=   0
  GID_OFFSET?=   0

Maybe this could be implented upstream to support overlaying GIDs and UIDs

Kind regards,

Henrik Rosenke
