[Hmm... Was followup not set? It tried to post to the announce list too! |

That's a no-no for replies! Luckily gmane has it set read-only so my news |
25 |
client gave me a warning.] |

So you mention openrc, but don't have it on the list? |

FWIW, I've not looked, but I think a number of the portage helpers are |
30 |
non-gentoo-dev developed, and certainly a number previously were, that |
31 |
have ultimately been folded back into portage and/or gentoolkit in someway |
32 |
or another now. I'm sure someone from one of those projects can list |
33 |
several of them without even looking. |
