| 1 | EAPI 2 removal bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/648050 |
| 2 | |
| 3 | It seems like tons of churn to update old stable ebuilds to a new |
| 4 | EAPI, just for its own sake. Take https://bugs.gentoo.org/648154 for |
| 5 | example. New ebuild added with EAPI 6 bumped from EAPI 2. Otherwise |
| 6 | functionally identical. Now asking arch teams to retest and |
| 7 | restabilize. Multiply by 100 or more. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | In the end we might get to delete some code from portage or an eclass? |
| 10 | Does this seem worth it? |
