To avoid breaking dependency resolution on users' systems, you have to |
| 12 |
make a new revision whenever you change a metadata variable that the |
| 13 |
package manager uses: DEPEND, RDEPEND, BDEPEND, IUSE, LICENSE, |
| 14 |
PYTHON_COMPAT, etc. |

Basically, unless your change is completely trivial (updated comment, |
| 17 |
typo fix...), you should be making a new revision by default. |
