Subject: [gentoo-dev] Removal of dev-ruby/nano-methods and dev-ruby/mega-modules

1 Hi all.
2
3 This is just a little heads up that the packages mentioned in the
4 subject will be removed at the end of next week (on 2005-11-05 or
5 2005-11-06).
6
7 Why will the get removed? dev-ruby/facets is an extension library that
8 adds some extra functionality to Ruby. For the last release upstream
9 decided to split up the package and released them as Nano Methods and
10 Mega Modules respectively. This changed again when facets-2005.10.30
11 (yep, that's still in the future) got released yesterday, which means
12 that the two separate packages are obsolete now. The new facets has
13 already been commited to CVS, so there's no real reason why the others
14 should stay.

16 Cheers,
17 Michael
