22 OK, I've commented out the pkg_preinst sanity check for now.
23
24 I've also updated the 9999 ebuild to create the deprecation symlinks.
25 setup.py has been updated as well.
26
27 I have a 2.2.14_rc1 tarball uploaded and I've attached the 2.2.14_rc1
28 ebuild here as well. Although it is the same code installed as 9999
29 currently.
30
31 If our testing doesn't come up with any more regressions, I'll release
32 the rc1 for some additional testing.
