21 OK, I have something.. the only problem I see is that the re2c.org people
22 won't be doing releases. They'll be working from CVS only. Marcus Boerger
23 asked this:
24
25 ". . .It would also be nice if gentoo could go with RPMs we provide from CVS
26 now (see README.in file)."
27
28 I replied to Marcus saying that I'd ask (but that I was doubtful anout using
29 RPM's :)
30
31 So, what to do?
32
33 I'm working on a new ebuild that uses a cvs snapshot (to be downloaded from a
34 distfiles mirror) that would seem the most logical way to go.. the only
35 problem with that is that a dev will have to update the snap every couple of
36 weeks/month. 8)
