[gentoo-portage-dev] app-shells/gentoo-bashcomp needs some portage expert lovin'

[Duncan]

Could a number of folks familiar with both portage AND bash completion
help out the shell-tools herd (no specific maintainer specified in
metadata) with app-shell/gentoo-bashcomp bugs?

It seems to have accumulated quite a number (13) of portage-completion
(and gentoolkit-completion) related bugs, including bug #424777 filed on
July 4th by jer, mentioning that it it breaks with make.conf in /etc/
portage, which is kinda critical right about now. =:^(

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=424777

And here's the list of all open bugs for it.  As you can see if you look,
all or nearly all of the currently 13 open bugs are portage or gentoolkit
related, and it really looks like the package could use some help from
those who know those tools.

https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=app-shells%2Fgentoo-bashcomp

(I said on the devlist thread I'd report bugs, but this one's been open
for over two months and is directly related to the make.conf move, so it's
a big one, simple fix proposed, but no actual fixes in-tree yet, plus
seeing all those others related to portage and gentoolkit, thus the
request here.)

I was planning on working on this.  I just need to get off my butt and find
someone to give me write access to the overlay.
