As some of developers noticed, current gpypi2[0] implementation (tool |
2 |
for querying Python Package Index to create ebuilds) needs root |
3 |
permissions for two reasons: |
4 |
|
5 |
- to write ebuild in overlay managed by layman |
6 |
- to unpack source for setup.py introspection with "ebuild foobar |
7 |
unpack" |

It just seems wrong for such a tool for the need of root permissions, so |
10 |
I'm asking what are the options to drop layman to root:portage or |
11 |
something similar. |
12 |
|
13 |
Discussion about the approach is open, I'm not *really* sure what would |
14 |
be the proper way. |
