1 For whoever is interested I tossed together a script to identify
2 packages that would immediately benefit from slot operator
3 dependencies but which are not doing so.

11 Feel free to make use of either as you see fit, make improvements,
12 submit improvements, fork, whatever. If one of your packages is on
13 the list feel free to update it! (And yes, I realize that in many
14 cases this may have been done with newer versions of the packages not
15 on the list - I didn't make any attempts to filter that out.)

17 Also, I'm sure I've used the portage API in less-than-ideal ways.
18 Having not really used it before this was half a learning exercise.
19 Feel free to send me suggestions/pointers. If somebody knows of an
20 easy way to process metadata in python (short of just parsing the xml
21 myself) let me know - I didn't see any kind of API for that.
