Hmmm...Looks to me like it would be a great idea to fix the unported |
| 17 |
ebuilds. Would it be possible to mark virtual/x11-7 as deprecated |
| 18 |
(using enotice/ewarn or similar), in order to get people to port any |
| 19 |
build relying on it to modular X? |

The way I see it, once virtual/x11-7 has been deprecated for a while (6 |
| 22 |
months to a year) and most popular packages have been ported to modular |
| 23 |
X, virtual/x11-7 and any packages still relying on it could be given |
| 24 |
Last Rites. |
