Use [Future EAPI] unless you have a definite agreement from absolutely everybody and their dog that it's going into EAPI 2. I had to go through and fix a load of bugs saying [EAPI 1] and don't really want to do it again. Things still left to do for PMS are as follows. Well-informed people are encouraged to comment and provide patches to pms-bugs@g.o. If you aren't sure whether you're well-informed, you aren't. * Someone needs to write up dohtml. * 178092: Someone needs to write up package.use. * 170697: can we consider profile masks to be in the same category as 'use? ( ) : ( )' and thus not worth documenting? * 174319: make.defaults needs to be parsed by things other than bash. Just how much of bash's syntax do we support? * 174330: PMS currently bans interactivity except in pkg_config. * 174335: Some ebuild use FEATURES. Can we get them to stop doing that, or do we have to force package managers to emulate it? * 174536: Currently there's no way to tell whether you have a cat/pkg or a cat/pkg-ver, and in no place does anything have to do so. Do we want to introduce new restrictions so that people can do that? * 175246: Portage sets EBUILD_PHASE=3Ddepend for the metadata source. Do we want to enforce this? * 188449: The eight digit limit for version parts is still in. Do we want to keep it? * 196561: PMS describes the ~ operator as working the way developers expect it to work, but Portage doesn't quite do that. * 202631: PMS doesn't document profile.bashrc. Currently, Paludis ignores it because most of the code that ends up there is extremely Portage specific. Do we document profile.bashrc and make it much more constrained? --=20 Ciaran McCreesh --Sig_/HfZIbs0fHwS2cnhqenI2dHS Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFH4VsH96zL6DUtXhERAnhbAKCwEDbB2/OnpqfYAGSL6MzZlgJk0gCdGXol w+r+pt0W+7R+a49MlQmaKeU= =eu/h -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/HfZIbs0fHwS2cnhqenI2dHS-- -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
