| 1 | Great news :) |

| 3 | W.r.t the new support for cross building, it would be grep if the eclass user could make use of |
| 4 | the new --prefix support in recent shadow utilities so users can be added to cross ROOT. |

| 12 | correctly. |

| 14 | Therefore, EAPI 7 ebuilds can be committed to the Gentoo repository |
| 15 | from now on. (Make sure that all inherited eclasses are supporting the |
