Since EAPI 3 is on the agenda already, I would ask the council to |
8 |
consider inclusion of "mtime preservation" (see bug 264130, and the |
9 |
thread "Preserving mtimes for EAPI3" in this ML). |

The proposal comes in two variations (to be decided upon): |
12 |
a) "mtimes fixup" and preservation of mtimes when merging are both |
13 |
mandatory. (This would require changes in all package managers.) |
14 |
b) "mtimes fixup" is optional, preservation of mtimes is mandatory. |
15 |
(This wouldn't require any immediate changes in Portage and |
16 |
Pkgcore.) |
