this has been discussed before and danarmak even had kde3 cvs ebuilds |
| 13 |
before kde3 was actually released. the word back then was, that this |
| 14 |
would at some time become part of the official portage... |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
i don't know what the current status is, but i know that it is difficult |
| 17 |
decision, because of the support questions that arise (which version do |
| 18 |
you have installed?) |

| 21 |
danarmak's page for examples of how he did it... (using fancy eclasses |
| 22 |
:) |

due to the reasons stated above, cvs ebuilds are very unlikely added to |
| 27 |
official portage though... |
