If it is difficult for the users, maybe it needs to be documented |
| 12 |
better. Might be as simple as a "Report old ebuild" links on the |
| 13 |
Bugzilla homepage. Somehow I don't think it is all that difficult |
| 14 |
though. |

To make a clean separation for other Bugzilla content a new |
| 17 |
Component may be added. This should ease an searching issues as long |
| 18 |
as the users searching are aware of the new component. But then we'd |
| 19 |
probably still see a bunch of confused, headless chickens running |
| 20 |
around squaking "ebuilds, old ebuilds". |
