Hi, |

Repoman needs to check for deprecated eclasses, see |
| 4 |
http://bugs.gentoo.org/141677 |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
As a result of the discussion in the bug, we would like to add |
| 7 |
$PORTDIR/qa-data/eclass.deprecated |
| 8 |
to allow to deprecate eclasses properly and make repoman fail. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
This will allow us to avoid problems with new ebuilds for deprecated |
| 11 |
eclasses which result in bugs like |
| 12 |
Bug 141629 dev-util/systemtap-20060325.ebuild uses deprecated |
| 13 |
kernel-mod.eclass |
| 14 |
I believe the developer has not known anything about that kernel-mod is |
| 15 |
deprecated when making that ebuild. Now he ignores the bug and we have that |
| 16 |
old eclass used again :( |
| 17 |
|

Best regards, |
