This would be a helpful addon. I would like to request that 0/= not be the syntax however, as I am hoping to request that syntax to support sub-slot passthrough (ie, for virtuals).

Why not "0/#" ? As it acts like a hash value for the build. I don't think we can really go forward with this. Slots have to be static for proper caching and dependency resolution, and subslot is a part of the slot. Moreover, live ebuilds aren't really supported, so I'm not convinced that adding extra magic for them is a good idea. Ok, WONTFIX then! |
