That being said, do we think there any critical repoman checks that pkgcore does not implement? Is there a plan for continued maintenance? E.g. when EAPI-next comes out I suspect repoman will get it (via portage), but pkgcore struggled to pick up new EAPIs as quickly. You mentioned pkgcheck had some releases; do we expect this to continue? -A > WDYT? > > -- > Best regards, > Michał Górny > >
