And I'm looking forward to ConfigParser spec files with sections like: [mounts] icecream = no ubuntu_shm = yes [mount source] portdir = /home/wking/src/portage port_logdir = /home/wking/src/portage-logs ubuntu_shm = /run/shm [mount targets] ubuntu_shm = /run/shm And to chaining spec files so that I can share basic stuff like this between all my stages… Hopefully soon :).
