This bug appears to been lost.
tools-portage: re-assign to yourself if you think it's relative still, else close.

Hey,

Just added an imlate script http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoolkit/trunk/gentoolkit-dev/src/imlate/
Needs to be tested until it hits the tree.
Comment 4 Christian Ruppert (idl0r) gentoo-dev 2009-05-07 09:33:56 UTC
gentoolkit-dev-0.2.6.11 has been released and an imlate script has been included.

The imlate script you pointed out doesn't work for me, no results.
So for any feature request and/or bug report regarding imlate file a new bug please.

If you still have the revcheck.sh please file a new bug/feature request and/or send me your script idl0r@gentoo.org.
Thanks and sorry for the delay. :)
