I was told to try sunrise with some of my ebuilds. There's a reason I |
| 14 |
didn't, and I suspect it's the same other people also don't go to |
| 15 |
sunrise. There's no good way of contributing an ebuild. There's no |
| 16 |
bugzilla or website where I can upload the ebuild. All I'm told is to |
| 17 |
go to IRC. I would as well might have been required to go to McDonald's. |
