There is an apparent workaround: |
12 |
|
13 |
EAPI=5 |
14 |
eapi 5 |
15 |
|
16 |
We could do that for however long it takes PMs to adopt the 'eapi' |
17 |
function. It requires one redundant line in the ebuild for a while, like |
18 |
the comment solution, but then ultimately we're left with standard bash |
19 |
instead of a magic comment. |
