1 Hello gentoo-dev's
2
3 Checking on how gentoo is locating ebuild for these 3 packages I found
4 that they're using different folders and overriding driver's name
5
6 x11-libs/libva
7 x11-libs/libva-intel-driver (overriding package name: intel-vaapi-driver)
8 media-video/libva-utils
9
10 Since the project moved to github.com/01org, could it possible to
11 relocate all the ebuilds starting with version 1.8.x to a common
12 folder?
13
14 This would be my proposal
15
16 media-video/libva
17 media-video/intel-vaapi-driver
18 media-video/libva-utils

20 Driver changed package name when transitioning to the new repository
21 and although that is handled in the current ebuild, a new ebuild name
22 might be helpful here.
23
24 Let me know your thoughts
25
26 Thanks.
