While I appreciate work done to do this conversion finally, what was
the reason to bypass the maintainers after being explicitly told on IRC
to not do so?
Since when have we entered a free-for-all state of maintenance in
Gentoo?
I would like to know the state of affairs, so I know for future
reference what can I expect and what I can do to packages that I do not
explicitly maintain either.

And yes, I am aware there was a pending bump request for a couple
years. I'm still dealing with backlog after getting back to tree
maintenance.


Mart Raudsepp,
thoroughly confused about current maintenance policies

I would also argue why wasn't this revbumped at the same time, if the
package was touched -at all-. This is a package I've been interested in
as a user for a couple of years now, but not having the required
knowledge, hadn't touched it to update. 0.6.3 is -ancient- and
unsupported upstream. In fact, I have been instrumental in fixing a few
bugs in the 0.7-series upstream, but could not bring these releases to
Gentoo because of the reasons mentioned.

Equally mystified,
Michael/veremit.
