Unless you found something special with EAPI-4, then there is nothing |
| 5 |
lost. dodoc never had the ability to work on directories in EAPI<4. |
| 6 |
There was just a bug in portage, which did not let dodoc die, when it |
| 7 |
was called on a directory. This now should, according to the mentioned |
| 8 |
bug 356389, show a QA warning and at some later point die as it should |
| 9 |
have done from the beginning. |

Please give me some common example for such a failure. |

So if dodoc does just qawarn, how should ebuilds now fail with dodoc |
| 22 |
called on directories? |

doins was never ment to work on directories, unless you used the -r switch. |

I currently cannot really see your problem, maybe you mixed some facts |
| 38 |
about dodoc and doins? Otherwise, please clarify this. |
