1 Hi,
2 Last week i was working with adding to portage support for emerging
3 packages from one specific repository.
4 Atom class was modified to support a new field, with repository name.
5 Now before package category it is possible to add a repository name
6 followed by '::'.
7 So emerge gentoo::app-portage/eix is the eix from repository gentoo.
8 Atom class is already working, but emerge is still ignoring this
9 repository name.
10 It was also necessary to change other places in portage because slot
11 separator is ':' and portage was getting confused when atom has '::'.
12 This week work will be to use this atom information in portdbapi and
13 in the dependency resolver to use ebuilds from the specified
14 repository.
