Should I put time into extending the portage code on this or is it being dropped? I do have a need for this feature and need to make a decision as to where to spend my time and efforts (maybe rpm building in a separate project?). I would like know if the portage maintainers would be interested in patches.=20 PS. I do apologize if this sounds pushy or rude, it's not intended to be ;) On Thu, 2003-12-11 at 12:31, Ron Wills wrote: > Hi all >=20 > I've noticed the rpm packaging support is a little broken in the > current version of portage.
