Well, look at sys-auth/bioapi. The ebuild is written (and maintained) by an ex-developer, SeJo. He sends me the updates, and I commit them. About the only thing that I do is run them through repoman and check that they're not doing fun things like "rm -rf /" in pkg_preinst. ;] Of course, they're super-new, so there's no bugs, but once a bug gets filed on it, I'll be sure that SeJo is added to CC, if he isn't added by the bug wrangler. At that point, I'll expect him to fix it. In the end, *I* am ultimately responsible for the package, since I am the developer that "maintains" it, but the workload on me is minimal, at most. > But I'd like to do official portage and not any overlay.

If your package was added to an overlay and the bug was closed, it was closed in error. Bug reports (unless they pertain to an overlay itself) don't get closed until the bug is "FIXED" in the main tree. --=20 Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Alpha/AMD64/x86 Architecture Teams Games Developer/Council Member/Foundation Trustee Gentoo Foundation --=-dmTbp9jwmQR/vKuZ3B8I Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBFJRY4kT4lNIS36YERAkxXAJ4pfvyak5ezyruQh6qN7NdqWN/jmgCgrxsO TFnb6S4LDFbKwz3uHyiZBRA= =DqTI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-dmTbp9jwmQR/vKuZ3B8I-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
