By zero-install I mean a package from the main tree ("gentoo") that none |
| 11 |
of the submitters has installed. To detect such packages I plan to |
| 12 |
collect the list of currently in-tree packages from rsync and query the |
| 13 |
submission database against it. |

I'm aware that with currently ~13,000 packages in tree and ~4,000 |
| 16 |
packages in the Gentoo Smolt database the zero-install list holds ~7,000 |
| 17 |
packages. With more submission I expect that number to decrease |
| 18 |
strongly in the future. |

With that in mind, what do you think? |
