Next item: provided that EAPI 7 is approved, we'd have 4 'live' EAPIs |
| 11 |
in motion [1]. I'd like therefore request the Council to vote on: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
a. banning EAPI 4 for new ebuilds (and EAPI bumps of existing ebuilds). |
| 14 |
It has been deprecated on 2015-10-11. In the past, deprecated EAPIs were |
| 15 |
banned within 11/23 months from deprecation, so we're overdue. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
2. deprecating EAPI 5. In case of EAPIs 3-4 they were deprecated 4-5 |
| 18 |
years after being added. EAPI 6 has been added on 2015-11-13, and even |
| 19 |
toolchain team already uses it, so there's really no reason to use |
| 20 |
EAPI 5 anymore. |
