I don't mind a warning, but I'll tell you right now there is no way I'm
using anything other than EAPI 0 for toolchain packages. Mike might
disagree but I don't think anyone feels like rewriting and auditing

vulunerable library will still be used, and most likely unseen by
admin.

I think you should check out the preserve-libs feature in portage-2.2.
Hi folks,

(partially) obsolete in future:
Today it might happen that on an library update an old .so file
gets unmerged while still used by somebody - that's what revdep-
rebuild scans for. While it should catch those cases, we still

You do not need .. or . in a path for it to be a relative path.

This doesn't pick up eclasses, fails on EAPI='1', and generally, isn't
the best way- use proper tools please, they exist for a reason.

That seems also to be a safe first step. EAPI-1 ebuilds were at least
written with EAPIs in mind. That's obviously not true for EAPI-0.
We could even

Hi,
after approval of EAPI 4, there are now 5 different EAPIs available,
and it's hard to remember what features are offered by which EAPI.
So maybe it's about time that we deprecate EAPIs 0 and 1 for new
ebuilds. As a first step, a warning could be added to repoman that
would be triggered whenev
