17 Jun 2013; Sergey Popov <pinkbyte@gentoo.org> rancid-2.3.8.ebuild: Bump EAPI to 5, make cvs USE-flag default per upstream, add ~x86 keyword Apparently upstream likes it this way.
You can use subversion backend if you put something like: net-misc/rancid -cvs subversion in your package.use file. There is no need to change ebuild in this case, +cvs just makes cvs USE-flag enabled by default.
Thanks. I typoed -csv instead of -cvs prior to opening ;/
