(In reply to Michał Górny from comment #0) > See also http://paludis.exherbo.org/trac/ticket/1347 Could you explain why support for repos.conf is necessary for paludis? Currently I am under impression it just duplicates existing functionality.
Because the 'existing functionality' is deprecated and it results in Paludis using wrong values given new enough Portage configuration.
