15 So, let me change my wish:
16 It would solve my problem, if all cvs ebuilds support the -z test. So
17 i can decide whether to checkout or not without changing the ebuild

19 Right now i can't access my gentoo system, but on sunday i will
20 file bugreports for ebuilds that don't respect my ECVS_SERVER setting.
