The Council approved profile eapi files for use a while ago (can't |
| 15 |
remember when -- http://council.gentoo.org/ isn't being updated), and |

As far as PMS is concerned, you just need to create a file named 'eapi' |
| 20 |
containing a single line with '1' in it in each profiles/ directory in |
