Created attachment 330262 [details, diff] text.xml.diff It is discouraged by some herds (such as base-system) to file tons of bugs regarding this issue since it's low priority anyway. A few other people already complained too. To loosen this a bit we should update the handbook according to these suggestions: Bugs should be filed... * if the build system does not use econf or something conrollable by an eclass (such as cmake or games). Otherwise we assume that ebuilds migrate to EAPI=5 over time which solves this anyway. * for the eclass that controls the build system (e.g. cmake) or the package in another way (e.g. games.eclass or gnome2.eclass) * for a single ebuild if there are no solutions above ebuild-level
