Compelling - I tend to agree. It'd be nice if some python-wise |
| 7 |
individual(group) wrote a tool that could interact with the portage api |
| 8 |
enough to get the update list to see what would be updated, then parse |
| 9 |
the changelogs - separate from portage, but interacting just enough to |
| 10 |
know what's on the list for upgrades/downgrades/reinstalls. Of course, |
| 11 |
this still wouldn't account for the massive developer tax effort for |
| 12 |
rewriting changelogs to adapt to the tool - or remembering to write |
| 13 |
changelogs with new markers. |

ick. nice ideas, but tough to enact i think. |
