that wasnt what i was referring to, but converting to the tree standard only

looks/tested correct to me

must be some magical ewarn only you can see because both ebuilds have the same

assuming it breaks on every system but mine, it's not keyworded/unmasked.  so 
any problems are easily corrected for no penalty.

gmail says neither of you sent me an e-mail in the last month.  perhaps you

you're pissing over nothing.  i stated openly at a council meeting two weeks 
ago i was working on it.  so if you want to draw any random conclusions you
