I was implying something that did not build/compile. All mentioned would be obvious exceptions, as they are clearly not binary only. The requirement would be for binary only packages. An ebuild using src_compile from a eclass is likely not a binary only package. An ebuild installing scripts, text. xml, patches, etc would not be considered a binary only package either. -- William L. Thomson Jr.
