First off, I'm going to ask that everyone please respond on gentoo-dev,

I want to add an ebuild for APC 3.0.0 (dev-php/PECL-apc) to portage but
am stuck with the following problem: APC 3.0.0 works with PHP 4.3.X and
PHP 5.1.X but not with PHP 5.0.X.
To block the installation of APC 3.0.0 with PHP 5.0.X I added the
following to the ebuild:

Hi,
I'd like to introduce the following security policy for web-based apps.
If there are no objections, every new web-based app will have to conform
to the policy before it can be added to the tree. Every existing
web-based app will have to conform to the policy by the end of August,

Time for cleanups in Gentoo/FreeBSD.. we already disabled inetd building in
our latest ebuilds, but that isn't exactly sorted out for a reason: I don't
know how to deal with xinetd.
Let me summarize:
inetd is the old-unix-insecure implementation that it's usually used.

Hi all!
Short explanation for the subject: A *DEPEND mismatch is when a package
is listed in DEPEND, but missing in RDEPEND and vice versa. I have a
list of ebuilds at http://dev.gentoo.org/~swegener/qa/depend-mismatches
that contain such mismatches. I've already whitelisted packages like
automake

Still there are a few other RDEPEND which makes sense to not be DEPEND,
especially for scripts.

Many of the RDEPEND.only are correct, as the packages are just scripts
