# @BLURB: Creates symlink to the latest version of multiple slotted packages.
# @DESCRIPTION:
# When a package is SLOT'ed, very often we need to have a symlink to the
# latest version. However, depending on the order the user has merged them,
# more often than not, the symlink maybe clobbered by the older versions.
#
# This eclass provides a convenience function that needs to be given a
# list of alternatives (descending order of recent-ness) and the symlink.
# It will choose the latest version it can find installed and create
# the desired symlink.
#
# There are two ways to use this eclass. First is by declaring two variables
# $SOURCE and $ALTERNATIVES where $SOURCE is the symlink to be created and
# $ALTERNATIVES is a list of alternatives. Second way is the use the function
# alternatives_makesym() like the example below.
# @EXAMPLE:
# pkg_postinst() {
#     alternatives_makesym "/usr/bin/python" "/usr/bin/python2.3" "/usr/bin/python2.2"
# }
#
# The above example will create a symlink at /usr/bin/python to either
# /usr/bin/python2.3 or /usr/bin/python2.2. It will choose python2.3 over
# python2.2 if both exist.
#
# Alternatively, you can use this function:
#
# pkg_postinst() {
#    alternatives_auto_makesym "/usr/bin/python" "/usr/bin/python[0-9].[0-9]"
# }
#
# This will use bash pathname expansion to fill a list of alternatives it can
# link to. It is probably more robust against version upgrades. You should
# consider using this unless you are want to do something special.
