oh, and SLOTting as well.
Most of this patch is copied from etcat -v, the rest from emerge and
portage.py.
Comment 2 Marius Mauch (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-02-06 15:20:51 UTC
patch doesn't apply cleanly against etcat from gentoolkit-0.2 and I don't want to add new features to it anyway, but concentrate on getting equery stable and fully implemented.
