Description Mark Guertin 2002-11-21 10:45:58 UTC 
Wow, I was just told this, I don't generally use this tool...looking at it
confirms it.

This is _very_ nasty, no wonder non-x86 arches have been losing stable builds..

Can this be looked at?  It's my opinion that this is a _really_ bad thing to do
given the way things work in the portage tree right now.  

Thoughts?

Ahem, yes. *SHAMEFUL*

I'm soooo sorry. It was written when we only had one arch, and hasn't been
touched since. I'll get to it ASAP.

Thanks karl

No worries ;)  I just noticed this was the case and it kinda got e by surprise
;)  I have honestly never used the tool, but someone else did and went "hey!
what happened!" :)

Thanks for your attention on this
