Somebody would have to maintain these things, so you should take your proposal to the gentoo-dev mailing list to see if the ebuild developer community is interested in it. Can I post to gentoo-dev without subscribing? (I already get mails from too many mailing lists...). What I realized in the meantime is that this could very easily be tested in an overlay first instead of creating an untested structure in the tree which people begin to depend on. (In reply to comment #2) > Can I post to gentoo-dev without subscribing? (I already get mails from too > many mailing lists...). Subscription info is here: http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/lists.xml You want the nomail option: listname+subscribe-nomail@lists.gentoo.org Interesting... Maybe this time this'll go somewhere. I remember filing a bug with similiar proposal a while ago (Bug 205089). I was swiftly pointed in the direction of GLEP 29 and discussion on gentoo-dev about it (there're some links in Bug 174254 Comment #3 but they appear to be broken). |
