No no no. The Portage team asked me to extend GLEP 42 to include support |
| 7 |
for some random thing that they might introduce in the future. I tell |
| 8 |
them no, unless they be a lot more specific about what said random |
| 9 |
thing is going to be. |

| Brian agreed with you that the extended dep syntax will be necessary |
| 12 |
| at some point in the future. I also agree. So, knowing that glep 42 |
| 13 |
| doesn't require extended depset syntax, can we stop playing this game |
| 14 |
| and just settle on something like newsdir="$(portageq newsdir |
| 15 |
| gentoo)"? |

What the heck is this 'gentoo' thing, and how does it help? Shoving |
| 18 |
newsdir into portageq doesn't help *at all* with multiple repository |
| 19 |
support. |
