Are there any bugs > you'd like to have some action? I'll taking a look at them if any. I was just going on the lack of answer here on the gentoo-dev list. If there was anything discussed off-list, I missed that. There isn't anything specific I want to see addressed, apart from having ibus and friends well maintained, with reasonably recent versions marked stable for the major arches. Once I gain my dev status back I will be happy to join that effort, as I plan to start using ibus for Chinese input, since I've started to learn some of the language of my newly adopted home. :-) Cheers, Ben | yngwin
[gentoo-dev] About maintaining sci-physics/abinit
Hello As talked some time ago with Donnie, sci-physics/abinit is hard to maintain and, then, he would like to lastrite it after moving package to sci overlay because looks like nobody from sci team wants to take it. If anybody is willing to help with maintaining abinit, could he take it? If not, could anybody with commit access to sci overlay to move abinit to it and let us lastrite it from main tree?

Also, I think most of maintainers would like to have help with a lot of packages, but that is not enough reason to change their metadatas to get bugs assigned to maintainer-needed and us CCed Have you seen any case when "if anyone wants to take it" he is not able to because the package is "owned" by a herd?

No, I meant one USE flag, called "tools", that builds and installs all or none of them. Unless they have external dependencies, or extraordinary build times, or licensing issues, then I can't see a situation where someone would want or need to pick and choose like this. If you disagree then I suppose an expanded variable is an improvement, though I don't like them myself. Kudos on the USE flag descriptions in any case.
