4 I figured it was time for a bit of cleaning... I ended up writing a
5 really crappy script for stable to do a check of whether package.mask
6 entries were really referencing anything or not. Luckily Brian was able
7 to write a much better one for bcportage.
8
9 So the list of invalid masks is at [1].
10 The script source is at [2].
11
12 Please have a look and see if any of the packages are yours. Entries in
13 package.mask should have a corresponding ebuild in the tree somewhere.
14 I'd like to see the number of entries chopped by a fair margin.
15
16 * Yes there is an exception thrown for kde-base/metadata.xml. I have
17 nfc what the hell that is doing in package.mask, but I was told it was
18 already fixed ;)
