I don't think the problem with maintainer-wanted ebuilds is that they are crappy, but that there is no dev willing to maintain them and ensure their quality over time. 'sunrise' (who came up with that name ? cheap asian poetry attempt) doesn't change that by adding it to an 'official' overlay. Instead of tackling the real problem -the lack of maintainers to deal with all requests- 'sunrise' is trying to create a backdoor for unreliable maintained stuff to enter the tree. - foser --=-I+JpoMqQu1UAEB5TLR1p Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBEiEYd8WG+0iaGxDMRAsW5AJ0WdkGlupmHwyo3ULpTBsG/uDfMdQCgmfVS fmS9uxJpweJqxPWLxKl++oM= =i+N+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-I+JpoMqQu1UAEB5TLR1p-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
