Subject: Ideas for a (fast) EAPI=3
Date: Sun, 08 Mar 2009 08:49:16 +0100
Hi everyone

With eapis 1 and 2 we introduced nice features but also a couple of new
problems. One of them are the use dependencies when the package you
depend on doesn't have the use flag anymore (see [1] for an example).

So I think it's time for a short eapi bump with some distinct
improvements:

Please discuss.

Cheers,
Tiziano


[1]:
Git depends on subversion[dso], but subversion-1.5.5 doesn't have
USE=dso anymore, so my package manager (paludis in that case) tried to
downgrade to a version of subversion where the USE flag exists.
The PMS says this about the issue: "It is an error for a use dependency
to be applied to an ebuild which does not have the flag in question in
IUSE [...]"
