9 Yeah, I'm not on the ML- as for the eclass, I read the source;
10 nothing in there in re: to wrappers currently.
11
12 Only thread I see that is relevant is
13 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.python/11 ; roughly
14 executable wrapper, just what I'm spelling out here is the
15 exact mechanism's of how to do it.

17 Re: python-r1; frankly... if folks are fine w/ the wrapper, I don't
18 want it delayed waiting on python-r1 (or only used there).
19
20 As I laid out, what I'm proposing can be dropped in *now* for existing
21 python eclass- basically moves that logic out of it and into
22 eselect-python.
23
24 It'll be faster/saner to maintain, less code in python eclass, and
25 reusable going forward for the new attempts; plus I'm willing to do it
26 (meaning it'll get done in the next week or two).
27
28 That said; +1 or -1, or some where in between?
