Normally, I wouldn't send private responses to the list, but since this |
| 2 |
is something everyone can use (and nothing "private") I am making an |
| 3 |
exception. |

That would be correct. The rightmost ChangeLog should be used. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
What I am hoping we end up with is: |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
profiles/default-linux/$arch/ChangeLog: This is for the arch |
| 17 |
team/releng/anyone else who make changes in an architecture's profile. |
| 18 |
This would be for adding, for example, things to use.mask or |
| 19 |
package.mask on the no-multilib profile(s). |
| 20 |
profiles/default-linux/ChangeLog: This is for stuff affecting Linux |
| 21 |
only. |
| 22 |
profiles/base/ChangeLog: This is for anything affecting everyone. |
| 23 |
profiles/ChangeLog: This is for new USE/package.mask and such. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Of course, other ChangeLog entries could be added to different |
| 26 |
locations, but this is my trying to keep the number of ChangeLog |
| 27 |
locations as small as possible. I'm definitely open to any other |
| 28 |
suggestions or ideas. I just think this is probably the easiest for the |
| 29 |
time being. |
