I guess no one else has any feelings about this. Potentially doing something like: DEPRECIATED="$DEPRECATED $ECLASS" at the top of each deprecated eclass. In the end $DEPRECATED would have a list of all the eclasses that are deprecated? Maybe even: DEPRECATED_MYECLASS="myreplacement" would mean that myeclass.eclass is replaced by myreplacement.eclass ? -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
