Hi, |

I've had the 'stricter' FEATURE turned on for some time and found that |
4 |
many packages failed due to the QA notice regarding poor programming |
5 |
practices. I filed a few bugs for this but have not gotten a lot of |
6 |
response, or the suggestion to talk to upstream. Obviously the latter is |
7 |
always a good option, but I'm wondering what the intend behind this QA |
8 |
notice is. |

My view is that if this is a QA notice then, if a package doesn't emerge |
11 |
because of it, it is a Gentoo QA bug and package maintainers should be |
12 |
responsible for fixing it. |
13 |
|
14 |
If the notice is only informational, then the emerge process should not |
15 |
be stopped because of it (and this would mean that it is nice to fix |
16 |
these issues but not mandatory). |
17 |

Kind regards, |
