I'm trying to modify portage.py using Metadata_XML.py. It needs some small |
| 15 |
changes in portdbapi.aux_get(). Others that need to be modified are |
| 16 |
repoman and gentoolkit IMO. gentoolkit will be harder to modify. Is there |
| 17 |
anything else to be modified? |
| 18 |
Setting license, description, homepage in ebuild should take |
| 19 |
precedence over metadata.xml so we don't need to change the whole tree |
| 20 |
immediately. |
