Hi list. |

I've been working on getting a Gentoo version of Debians resolvconf package |
| 4 |
into portage. It's basically a re-write of the internals (which I don't like) |
| 5 |
but the command line, setup and plugin system are 100% compatible (except for |
| 6 |
the plugins which may need one line changing). As such, I've credited the |
| 7 |
original author (Thomas Hood) and basically said this is a Gentoo re-write. |
| 8 |
It's all good to go and all dhcp clients in portage and openvpn have patches |
| 9 |
ready for its optional support. dhcp (dhclient) and ppp have already been |
| 10 |
patched in portage. |
| 11 |

Now, if the commandline is the same, should the package name be the same? If |
| 13 |
so, what version number should I be using? It's currently just called |
| 14 |
resolvconf-0.1 |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Thoughts? |

BTW, baselayout-1.12 has always had a resolv.conf management system, but that |
| 19 |
was coded on a per package basis - resolvconf allows each package to inject |
| 20 |
dns setup without being reliant on baselayout. So baselayout-1.12.0_pre17 |
| 21 |
will be a fair bit lighter! |

Thanks |
