Section 4.3 "Package Directories" says: |
2 |
<https://projects.gentoo.org/pms/6/pms.html#x1-340004.3> |
3 |
|
4 |
A package directory contains the following: |
5 |
[...] |
6 |
* A Manifest file, whose format is described in [GLEP 44]. |
7 |
|
8 |
Which is the only item not marked as optional in that list. Now with |
9 |
thin manifests the file can end up empty, in which case it is omitted |
10 |
(e.g. if the package contains only live ebuilds). |
11 |
|
12 |
So, should we enforce that there is always a Manifest file even if it |
13 |
is empty, or should we update the spec? I would suggest the latter. |
