1 Hi,

3 In theory, the check_license function from eutils.eclass is obsoleted by
4 ACCEPT_LICENSE support which has been available in stable since January
5 2010 when sys-apps/portage-2.1.7.16 was marked stable [1].
6
7 We may want to actively remove this function from ebuilds, especially
8 for cases in which it is the only reason that PROPERTIES=interactive is
9 set (PROPERTIES=interactive is annoying because it inhibits parallel
10 builds via emerge --jobs).
