<seemant> but I left the original xforms in there -- it will be a metapackage which RDEPENDs on virtual/xforms <seemant> that way it's backwards compatible <drobbins> hmmm <seemant> during the course of cleanup, of course, I will be changing xforms entries as I come across them <drobbins> you know you can just use x11-libs/xforms as the virtual itself? <drobbins> a virtual doesn't have to have virtual/ at the beginning. <seemant> oh really? <drobbins> so you can have x11-libs/xforms (the virtual) resolve to x11-libs/xforms-x86 on x86 systems, etc. <seemant> so the entry in the virtuals file would be how? <drobbins> yep <drobbins> is the cat x11-libs? <seemant> yes <drobbins> x11-libs/xforms x11-libs/xforms-x86 <drobbins> (for x86) <drobbins> then you don't need to change any deps. <seemant> ah ok <seemant> that makes sense <drobbins> the only problem is.... <drobbins> if you need to use xforms-9 <drobbins> and someone has the *real* xforms-2 installed. <drobbins> in that case, it won't resolve the virtual and pick up the new xforms. <seemant> oh <drobbins> hrm. <drobbins> if you have time, post that as a bug. <seemant> ok, will do <drobbins> um. <drobbins> switching to virtual/xforms may be best then.
