What do we gain by doing this in the ebuild's src_install() over doing |
28 |
it in? Because... |

actually seems useful. We've had clearly broken commits go upstream, |
34 |
and if the author had been able to test from a git checkout we |
35 |
probably could have avoided that. |

Sounds like it shouldn't be any trouble to rebase on top of Dylan's |
51 |
patches, which are (pending the v2 of patch 2) read to be applied to |
52 |
master. |

What I mean is that I don't want to turn down contributions from new |
55 |
developers because there's a big backlog of work that hasn't gone |
56 |
upstream. |
