As suggested, later PMS features (eg. (+) / (-), ...) and PM features (eg. binpkgs, ...) can change that; so, a policy adaption or a clearly described workflow may at some point be necessary to stay actual.=20 > Now... whether dynamic deps are technically the right thing to do is > another question.

To deal with that one needs a clear workflow; given that it replaces an automatic feature or hack without much rebuilds, by something that needs you to decide whether or not to rev bump and cause more rebuilds. --=20 With kind regards, Tom Wijsman (TomWij) Gentoo Developer E-mail address : TomWij@gentoo.org GPG Public Key : 6D34E57D GPG Fingerprint : C165 AF18 AB4C 400B C3D2 ABF0 95B2 1FCD 6D34 E57D --Sig_/ZYanX1bn4F4j0o5113+0iXc Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJTzuWuAAoJEPWZc8roOL/Q9aQH/3fDCOOU0rT3SPE1qUW5Y/q8 +7cDLHshsQNuockXYm2pEx4YO89dZQQqDJnFmar8L4H+uSrxTCgWeej9yoKZaOc6 yOCoI4706kPFrCExYi3fmOj6Ywjv2RqZJNpC3DHIM/cvj/dw6FTjYgzU8V23Ttrt 2t1WUEVnXuxoZSpqFCA3tEpU7vEz5pdOBxiyBmZbmyJTXB1keA33tmlvm7qMU2sR 6K8n1AmRT7HrcjwtQa0hSQ2+k0rO43dAXHwnslSLl2owBolzBn4fg0eNcYbCbKcY YkqjKXvnwH1mvU3F8qEhdNKzQUBPq4xNp+oh+HbUZCoBIo2ZqAvjOqMXiFEdyHY= =rcxu -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/ZYanX1bn4F4j0o5113+0iXc--
