Hi all,
I've been busy for the past month or two, busy updating some of my
systems. In particular, the Yeeloong I have, hasn't seen attention in a
very long time. Soon as I update one part however, I find some swath of
packages break because of a soname change, anything Python-related stops

There's no rule, but we should follow the same rule as ebuilds —

Hi all,
so I solved my signing question. With a 1024 DSA key you need to add
enable-dsa2
personal-digest-preferences SHA256
to your gpg.conf.
Another question, do we have a rule, how the metadata.xml has to be
indented? Tabs or n spaces?
thanks justin

Hi,
I was signing my commits since I am a dev, but I just discovered that I
only do sha1 signing. How do I switch to sha256 signing?
