The bot(s) also link to https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Proxy_Maintainers/User_Guide If you are not a Gentoo Developer, you need a Gentoo Developer to merge changes for you. This is called proxying -- you author the change and someone else helps you by merging it. The Proxy Maintainers project is a team of Gentoo Developers that devote their time to helping proxy most people who ask, depending on availability. There are some guidelines around when Proxy-Maintainers is willing to take on new packages. You can also arrange privately with a specific Gentoo Developer to have them proxy you, without the involvement of the Proxy-Maintainers team effort. > Why can't I use "${PV}" "${PN}" in the HOMEPAGE= ?

The purpose of HOMEPAGE is, in part, that it is easy to copy/paste from the file without executing it in a bash shell. Please report a critical upstream bug if there is no generic homepage for the project that can be used without a constantly changing version number. Even if the only project information is a generated documentation page, it is standard operating procedure for software to have a documentation site where {site}/latest/ is the docs for the current version, and {site}/1.0.0/ is the docs for a specific version. -- Eli Schwartz
