1 Last rites for dev-db/firebird-docs

3 I am not sure why this is it's own package. It's pulling in old release
4 notes, and pdf documentation available via a USE flag on the firebird
5 package itself. Which I guess one could want documentation less and
6 install, but I fail to see why we need an ebuild for that :) Just go
7 download the docs and voila :)

9 Anyway unless their is a compelling reason to keep in tree, it's going
10 to be removed ASAP. Not sure if it's worth waiting 30 days on or not,
11 but will likely let it serve it's time. As for deps, I would be shocked
12 if anything deps on this. Given that the firebird package itself
13 doesn't :)
