For current EAPIs, there's nothing specifically wrong about changing |
| 8 |
EAPI from a package manager perspective. If future EAPIs change the |
| 9 |
metadata they install or the way the treat use flags, there might be |
| 10 |
issues, but it's safe to do 0 to 1 to 2. |

I'd be inclined to recommend against changing EAPI on a stable ebuild, |
| 13 |
since switching EAPI is a fairly major change that could cause |
| 14 |
unexpected breakages, but that's purely a QA issue. |
