I'm speaking of GLEP 42. No idea if pkgcore or paludis support these. That's why i said "portage". http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/glep/glep-0042.html >> - notifications from within ebuilds >> >> - a users guide counterpart of >> http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/Python/developersguide.xml >> >> - mentioning in 'man make.conf' > > why? make.conf is for "custom settings for Portage". Good point. Still, as of now that's where to put USE_PYTHON. I'm unsure if that's a reason strong enough to add it. >> As it involves a GLEP and GuideXML maybe that's perfect for involving >> people being recruited at the moment. > > Why a GLEP? It involves usage of a GLEP, not creating a new one. Sorry, if I did not put this clearly. Best, Sebastian
