Subject: [gentoo-portage-dev] [PATCH 1/1] repoman: deprecate netsurf.eclass.
Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2020 17:36:48
Message-Id: 20200616173635.12817-1-mjo@gentoo.org
1 While investigating bug 489542, it became clear that the netsurf
2 eclass is deprecated in spirit if not in fact. All of the newer
3 netsurf ebuilds use a custom function loaded from a script that is
4 shipped in netsurf-buildsystem's $FILESDIR to do (some of) what the
5 eclass used to do. That function probably does belong in an eclass,
6 but at this point, we should throw this thing out and start from
7 scratch.
8
9 By deprecating the eclass, we make sure that no one else inherits it
10 during the time it takes to purge the two remaining consumers. Then,
11 once those are gone, the build system script magic can be put back
12 into an eclass, and its consumers updated one-at-a-time.
