emeta will likely become `equery meta' in the next release of |
16 |
gentoolkit, but feel free to use it from the overlay for now. |

Regarding equery, there's a "changes" option that is just waiting to |
19 |
be written. Considering udept's changleog function is about 30 lines, |
20 |
it should be trivial to do. If people are interested, I can handle |
21 |
that. It's something I would like to have, also. |

I hope to have the upgraded gentoolkit available for testing within a few weeks. |
