1 Hello devs,
2 It has been brought to my attention that deltup is in need of some
3 lovin' via a treecleaner bug (bug 246916). Both deltup and
4 app-portage/getdelta are used in combination to provide smaller tarballs.

6 If anyone is interested in helping out the Gentoo dial-up users, please
7 consider picking these up. These will eventually have to leave the tree
8 soonish for security reasons (bundling vulnerable bzip versions).

10 I'm not interested in these packages, just spreading the word. They use
11 to be maintained by genstef.
