Different packages have different approaches for this; some don't have any HOMEPAGE line (dev-util/cdecl), some set HOMEPAGE to the empty string (app-i18n/kon2), possibly with a comment following it (app-i18n/kcc), and some set HOMEPAGE to some string that's obviously not a URL such as "none" (app-doc/xmltoman) or "I HAVE NO HOME :(" (app-text/dos2unix). There don't seem to be any guidelines in the docs, either official or unofficial, other than to put a link to the freshmeat page or something similar, which isn't possible in my case because there is no freshmeat page or anything similar that I know of, so what should I do? --2fHTh5uZTiUOsy+g Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDXdrqwnQyISwouHwRArj/AJ0Y7ypZ//RaQ/YN6R4/Xezm4CA0XACfXF4c NhCaMeQbcgAJgi9s394u3LY= =r3Jd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --2fHTh5uZTiUOsy+g-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
