I just glanced over Glep 31 and it does not say that. It is talking about |
| 14 |
ChangeLogs and metadata.xml (because they contain developer names with unicode |
| 15 |
characters). For patches and such it says to follow upstream suit. |

If you try to use non-ASCII characters on ebuilds repoman will whine so I |
| 18 |
suppose only ascii is supported and likewise there's nothing that I know of on |
| 19 |
/etc/portage that requires non ascii characters. |
