I think your question is missing a word or something. I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to ask... But if you're asking why we can't use the EAPI variable, it's because we can't get the EAPI variable unless we already know what it is. It's only possible currently because all EAPIs have identical global scope functions and environment requirements, but future EAPIs want to change things there. > In any case I'd like to understand why should we start support this > hell of extensions. Why do you think it's hell? It's just as easy as having an EAPI variable inside the ebuild, and has the added advantage that your editor of choice can start doing EAPI-aware syntax highlighting for you. --=20 Ciaran McCreesh --Sig_/IQTSLS8/exNW=G3Gd1j0dO+ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkiDRCkACgkQ96zL6DUtXhEdWQCdGxRwz7GQjano8LdMRI7AJ4YC JeQAoLzOWJ1moB6jf9ttuIbe2UgEyuMl =IuOw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/IQTSLS8/exNW=G3Gd1j0dO+--
