Ok, that's more precise. I thought this would be a problem with repoman as I |
| 12 |
was calling 'repoman scan'. |

I don't do automatic dependency resolving, too. All I automate is keywording |
| 22 |
exactly one ebuild. If I have an ebuild that needs another four dependencies |
| 23 |
stable I call five times mp.sh with the according ebuilds. |

As you can see I am neither a good programmer (didn't even know about |
| 30 |
std::isdigit until jkt told me..) nor do I write good scripts. Although I am |
| 31 |
willing to educate on both issues. Maybe we can really start such a project. |
| 32 |
Anyone else interested? Stable marking monkeys from sparc, x86 and amd64 |
| 33 |
might be interested in this. |
