David moved the do-extract to pre-install with "Follow the porter's
handbook and allow 'make all' to be run by a moral user." as the reason.
The linux_base-8 port is special in this case, since it needs the linux
kernel module to be loaded, which isn't allowed by an ordinary user.
At least the module is loaded at the beginning of the extraction
process. In case a rpm runs a linux binary (or a script which needs a
linux shell) we really need the module to be loaded. If this isn't the
case we can move it into the do-install target where it is needed by the
linux ldconfig program.
In case we need to load the module for the extraction process, I think
we should say the linux_base-8 port is special and you can build it as
root only (we don't have an INSTALL_DEPENDS, and RUN_DEPENDS doesn't
really fit here).
So either we revert rev 1.96 and 1.97 completely, or we test if we can
move the "sh pkginstall" part to the do-install target and rename the
pre-install target back to do-extract.
Bye,
Alexander.
