As asked in the last council meeting here are my thoughts. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
1. Rather than linking to the PMS repo it should refer to the devmanual |
| 24 |
on CPV http://devmanual.gentoo.org/ebuild-writing/file-format/index.html |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
2. "Each <flag> XML tag requires a 'name' attribute which is the full |
| 27 |
USE flag name as it would appear in the IUSE section of the ebuild." |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Shouldn't this rather be as it appears. If the use flag is not used in |
| 30 |
all versions I would rather see that the |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
3. It should clarify the meaning of the pkg and cat tags as links to |
| 33 |
other places in the tree. IMHO it doesn't hurt to be explicit. |
