I think we also need to know: |
| 8 |
How many EAPI's do we have now? |
| 9 |
Where is the detailed definition of those EAPI's? |
| 10 |
How can we produce a new EAPI? |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
IMO, we can not have more than two EAPI's simultaneously. |
| 13 |
The only situation in which we can have two EAPI is in the transition period |
| 14 |
of those two EAPI's. And we should set a time constraint on the transition. |
| 15 |
Other than that we can only have one working EAPI which all package managers |
| 16 |
conforms to. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Otherwise, I think we may be risking forking the portage tree. |
