Any reason to bother me? There have been several threads about libressl |
| 20 |
and the overlay has been up for more than one year I think. If you have |
| 21 |
a suggestions, say it. |

Because then I could simply give up with ~550 packages, where for most |
| 33 |
of them the change is a two-liner in RDEPEND. It is common in gentoo to |
| 34 |
not ask every single maintainer for tree-wide changes. The python herd |
| 35 |
does that too. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
If I don't know how to do something or if the changes are non-trivial, |
| 38 |
then I will definitely open a bug/PR. |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
Again: this all happens in unstable arch and practically effects no one, |
| 41 |
because people cannot effectively enable the USE flag yet. |

Do you want to help or not? |
