Currently there are some ebuilds in the tree that use ${PV} in
description which leads to results like:
     Description:         Documentation (including API Javadocs) for
Java SDK version 1.6.0

I did see anything in devmanual taking a stance on this issue:
http://devmanual.gentoo.org/ebuild-writing/variables/index.html
What do you think about adding a sentence or two saying that you should
not use version numbers in DESCRIPTION? This could even be added to repoman.
