Hi, |

|

I am hot happy with this change. |

|
| 5 |
Why must dev-lang/python become special? |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
eselect is a known interface for most (all?) slotted packages. |
| 8 |
Configuration management tools expect that the appropriate module will |
| 9 |
be pulled in once you install a slotable package. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
You are now forcing everyone to either migrate to a new system (manage |
| 12 |
python-exec.conf directly) or ensure they update their world file and |
| 13 |
manually ensure that eselect-python is still installed which will make |
| 14 |
Python special. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
But because dev-lang/python does not call eselect-python anymore it |
| 17 |
looks like you cannot retain old, well established behavior across all |
| 18 |
slotable packages anymore. |
