Description Joe Kowalski 2003-04-24 17:38:28 UTC

It would be nice to have the upstream changelogs for some packages integrated into portage  
perhaps as a file in the package directory called something like 
app-foo/bar/UpstreamChangelog. 
 
Thanks

blowing up portage ? i don't like the idea
if you install a package, mostly Changelog and other docs are installed on
your system into /usr/share/doc/${PF}

Closing, tiz an oldy.
Packages should be installing the changelog to /usr/share/doc/${PF} as Martin pointed out.
