The only problem is that you have to maintain ebuilds in an overlay |
| 6 |
and run "repoman manifest" every time you create or edit a meta package. |
| 7 |
Here's an off-the-wall idea to combine the best of both worlds... |

|
| 9 |
* create virtual/rdepend.ebuild in the overlay |
| 10 |
* can it inherit/include an RDEPEND list from a specific text file? E.g. |
| 11 |
/etc/portage/package_rdepend |
| 12 |
* "emerge rdepend" after adding items to /etc/portage/package_rdepend |
| 13 |
* "emerge --depclean" after deleting from /etc/portage/package_rdepend |
