Agreed, but first we would have to walk through the Portage tree and |
| 13 |
make sure that any ebuild which calls econf can perform seppuku if |
| 14 |
needed. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
econf || die "econf failed" |
| 17 |
|

Once that is finished, we can remove the calls to die() from econf(). If |
| 19 |
this sounds agreeable to everybody, I'd be happy to submit a few ebuild |
| 20 |
patches to bugzilla to help out. |
