Mark bugs that involve support for package repositories as blockers of this bug.

What does package repositories mean?
A more sophisticated replacement of the binhost thingy?

Comment 2 Zac Medico gentoo-dev

It's any package source, such as an overlay or a binhost. It could also be some special adapter/bridge that allows packages to be installed from something like cpan without the need to write an ebuild.

Comment 3 Anton Bolshakov 2010-12-14 09:32:12 UTC

The bug #204324 is an another candidate
