Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
in the past weeks Jason, Zac and myself have been working to implement |
| 4 |
license based visibility fitlering (aka ACCEPT_LICENSE). This is also |
| 5 |
discussed in GLEP 23, however the original versions of that document |
| 6 |
didn't quite go along with the implementation and lacked some details. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
So here is a new version of it, the main changes are: |
| 9 |
- added definition of license group files |
| 10 |
- added license group negation semantics |
| 11 |
- updated proposed portage behavior to match current implementation |
| 12 |
(using visibility filtering system instead of blocker system) |
| 13 |
- added requirement for default ACCEPT_LICENSE in profiles |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Anyone interested in this feature should review the attached version. |
| 16 |
Unless there are major objections (or we find large problems in the |
| 17 |
implementation) this will be merged in one of the next portage releases |
| 18 |
(definitely not in 2.1.2 though). |

In the beginning, there was nothing. And God said, 'Let there be |
| 26 |
Light.' And there was still nothing, but you could see a bit better. |
