I still can't see any | *QA* violation there. Again, that's a design flaw. It's an eclass that's abusing SLOT, thus it's a QA issue. | Yeah, it checks for that since that's the way the eclass is designed. | You can't declare a slot in a kernel ebuild either. One is a design flaw. The other is not. | Well, starts to be boring - so, either come with something valid from | QA standpoint or stop now. This is a valid issue from a QA standpoint. This is also why I'm not going to waste my time doing a proper list -- rather than addressing issues, they are being passed off as irrelevant or even features. --=20 Ciaran McCreesh : Gentoo Developer (Wearer of the shiny hat) Mail : ciaranm at gentoo.org Web : http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm --Sig_rt11Gqb3Qei3FBra=J53_.+ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEBIPl96zL6DUtXhERAgGDAKCSRdstXtT3KV2l5C3udgr0pQcwPQCgkh2Z W4+p8yXmJ3oVG62uQYvTg3U= =zLFV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_rt11Gqb3Qei3FBra=J53_.+-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
