In that case the only copy of the src may be on our mirrors. The real answer IMHO is to fork it and put it on some hosting (doesn't need to be Gentoo hosting, code.google.com / github / whatever.) The mirrors are not designed to persist that kind of data; so folks get upset when the only copy of the source is deleted by the mirror service.

There could be an deprecation warning that the functions are going away to be nice with overlay maintainers but there is no requirement for such thing far as I'm aware. Punt away. - Samuli

Porting toolchain.eclass to another EAPI would require sacrificing more chickens than urban zoning regulations permit. I'm working on finding a small rural acreage close to a local ley line.

I like both suggestions. Maybe we could split by year? That way the old non-conforming entries would just go into the oldest log. Delaying rotation by one year (ie. the first entry in 2012 would cause entries in 2010 to be split off) would prevent getting a bunch of empty changelogs Jan 1st. -- fonts, gcc-porting, it makes no sense how it makes no sense toolchain, wxwidgets but i'll take it free anytime @ gentoo.orgEFFD 380E 047A 4B51 D2BD C64F 8AA8 8346 F9A4 0662 signature.asc Description: PGP signature
