This is also high on my "things to hack" list. (Not that I'd ever come |

I would love to see the whole PKGDIR variable vanish altogether and |

merge binary builds into ebuilds, creating a sort of apt-get / portage |
14 |
mixture, all with a "standard" ebuild setup. By allowing binaries to |
15 |
take on all the functionality of ebuilds, features like USE flags, |
16 |
multiple versions per repository, varying CFLAGs, and other such |
17 |
features are a given. The binary can be downloaded via standard ebuild |
18 |
methods, even. |
