Vote: unanimous yes EAPI 5 is allowed for ebuilds in the tree. The Council likes to note that EAPI 5 is not allowed to be used for stable ebuilds yet, for as long as a Portage supporting it is not marked stable. Package name specification =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D See [1]. Vote: a) Drop the limitation entirely (possibly in a future EAPI). -> noone voted for this option b) Make it stricter, i.e. disallow package names ending in a hyphen followed by anything that looks like a valid PVR. This is current Portage behaviour, and the tree complies with it, too. -> vote by: betelgeuse dberkholz grobian scarabeus ulm williamh c) Leave the spec as it is (and make Portage comply with it). -> vote by: chainsaw d) Require a) for Package managers and b) by tree policy. Practically, this would mean that repoman would reject "foo-1" as package name, but the rest of Portage would accept it. -> noone voted for this option By majority, option b) was chosen. This means the specification (PMS) has to be adapted to make it stricter on package names, e.g. [2].

Open Floor =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D chainsaw and williamh informed us about developments on udev at the linux kernel mailing lists, and possible actions that follow up from there [3]. _AxS_ requested quasi-consensus on in_iuse functionality, an EAPI6 feature was suggested. _AxS_ asked the Council if they knew anything about a git rollout by infra, however, since this is infra domain, the Council doesn't know or control this. ferringb wanted to have the Council take a look at the current unified dependencies discussion. It was pushed for the next agenda, to have some preparation necessary to discuss the topic in a clear and directed manner.
