In general yes, but in that case you're duplicating info like |
| 15 |
"dev-java/sun-jdk" unnecessarily. Reducing this to restrict="1.4" isn't |
| 16 |
easily readable as you'd need to know that restrict would specify a |
| 17 |
slot. If your plan is to make it easier to find useful information about |
| 18 |
a package (without using a fancy frontend, just reading the metadata.xml |
| 19 |
with $EDITOR) slot="1.4" (or a version attribute) might be a tad more |
| 20 |
human readable. |
