I see that portage-2.0.51-r2 is now stable. |
| 2 |
However, It has some useful features that are deprecated or broken. |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
1) emerge --upgradeonly |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
Why is this deprecated? I think it is endeed a useful feature. |
| 7 |
I'm not sure that the files /etc/portage/package* are a good (esay-to-use) |
| 8 |
replacement for it. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
2) emerge ebuild by path |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Acording to the man page, this is broken, however it is the most obvious way |
| 13 |
to specify an ebuild, isn't it? |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Why is this feature broken, could anybody find out? |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
I think is very important to keep the quality of portage to the highest standards, so I |
| 18 |
suggest not to realese as stable a version with important features broken. |
