I can't speak for other maintainers, but I thank each bug reporter that I work with; ~arch users *are* important because their (and our) testing is what allows us to even *have* a stable set of packages. That said, I wouldn't feel comfortable writing EAPI 6 ebuilds on packages with any stable dependencies. At least for the time being; I wouldn't want to disturb stable users. But once EAPI 6-compatible portage is stabilized, I see no issue. - -- Daniel Campbell - Gentoo Developer OpenPGP Key: 0x1EA055D6 @ hkp://keys.gnupg.net fpr: AE03 9064 AE00 053C 270C 1DE4 6F7A 9091 1EA0 55D6 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJWT/SmAAoJEAEkDpRQOeFwk0gQAIYeHKJJa+G9OAkm8u7B0SM0 nlsvVopu0yddHpV2ABdNqlOIDiQlf5nig0Je4MeHu+HuZ8mC55y890F5inFqwkJq RmXbUVBJu55oASS66XmdTSQ4dCeuJCxdnvq1t/ixWluWmFwkLkpzZWinGU82in3g W/QKAI+m8upWUPL0iD4nAPAlY5ruPDq1OBDi6JrSTyU9DaZCLdRwFaNY77DnmlAE 4VlMXjvYgWofanzZw/hoyzl0XfEDCmvyQx0pli6MBYf1qf6M/44ChOaXCE9y9Xgr PEXtOTQwmxZfvORVc/PThadsa/KzZ4HxeCeoixIEOtvkwv7UClRFqnVE2qD+nRPi SDBim415HLGldllzNjbQAkmG11Oz6O89GN3mQBD16/0QJFAHyEC/Oub08JxF1iIO 34z9dHvZGuC0X5rL59K/5oG4U9XijgiDWn8n3ph/+a4GaTQMqmxqbb9iPbZk/LHe uzGdp6/FBgPoj4mxDnNnIlTm95H+UYin5CqZRkoL1qRQpAYHXUn2bnIh1solBDCp ycBI4aHdNdjqhRVXFC0f1TjNXiQytOc3RBgajTDiCA0JykDPWEA2JRwrtZQnu8mI zYILqAND7bsu5zO1yDnxaESHS/kudOfi56F1IFXinxpYRbVItZoNovzYl5Cn6jtg cykFf4SZZ/Mblbnpb9k8 =JpWy -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
