Please review the following GLEP 42 news item for this: >=20 > Title: Paludis kdebuild-1 Removal > Author: Ciaran McCreesh > Content-Type: text/plain > Posted: 2009-12-14 > Revision: 1 > News-Item-Format: 1.0 > Display-If-Installed: =20 > kdebuild-1 was an EAPI used by the Gentoo KDE team and the Genkdesvn > project for various live ebuilds in overlays. >=20 > The Gentoo Council has decided that all mention of the kdebuild-1 EAPI > is to be removed from the Package Manager Specification immediately.

"KDEBUILD is no longer in use by any developers, as such paludis will=20 be removing support for it" is factually more accurate. Council doesn't care if you leave KDEBUILD support in your PM-=20 considering you've been claiming leaving it in PMS was needed for=20 users (and that one must always think of the users), the wording=20 implying blaim on the council is rather unnecessary. Jam it in your NEWS/RELEASE notes if you want to slant it, basically. > Users should verify that they have no kdebuild-1 packages installed.

This seems like this news item should be hitting gentoo-kde's overlay=20 on a sidenote- yes, the news item is about paludis, but the folk=20 affected are the ones who daftly used KDEBUILD eapis out of that=20 overlay. Either this, or a seperate NEWS item added to that overlay stating=20 "KDEBUILD is dead, remove those merged pkgs" would be wise. ~harring --Qrgsu6vtpU/OV/zm Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.13 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAksmqjMACgkQsiLx3HvNzgcQmACfQzC+jIMYFzv1GB5uSPzC97FJ UkYAnjuXSWVCPVjftYWZgG3LOJen/AMn =szvc -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Qrgsu6vtpU/OV/zm--
