25 No there isn't. But for most ebuilds there is no big change to EAPI="2".
26 Only exception are ebuilds using the python.eclass [1]. There you likely
27 will have a lot of work and the chance is high that you hit a bug in the
28 eclass. So I would recommend contacting Arfrever in any case of
29 problems. He is really willing to help us.

31 app-doc/pms includes the EAPI cheat paper from fauli.
