Description Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2023-10-19 20:05:54 UTC 
I mentioned this at https://bugs.gentoo.org/914590#c2 but let's give it its own bug.

https://devmanual.gentoo.org/function-reference/query-functions/index.html doesn't mention the improvements in EAPI 8 for dosym -r (bug 708360).
