Assuming this is directed at me: |
| 11 |
Set support will be more generic than just static package lists (think |
| 12 |
`emerge system`, `emerge security` or `emerge category`), they will be |
| 13 |
defined by python modules feeding the root nodes into the dep resolver. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Static package lists would just be one such module, and you |
| 16 |
could have multiple different modules for different formats, so don't |
| 17 |
worry too much about being compatible to portage (I haven't thought |
| 18 |
much about syntax yet, though there will definitely be a |
| 19 |
"world"-module), if your implementation won't match the "default" list |
| 20 |
module provided by portage it will be easy to provide your own module |
| 21 |
(assuming your format can be translated to simple atoms). |
