Given that at present, distutils-r1 and python-distutils-ng have |
| 45 |
identical end-results, I think that the introduction of distutils-r1 |
| 46 |
to the tree should also involve a sed against all the existing ebuilds |
| 47 |
using python-distutils-ng to move them to the new eclass. Then |
| 48 |
python-distutils-ng only needs to remain to support overlays. |
