Well putting the eapi per tree/repo and provide a way to fetch directly the tree a package manager can understand sounds pretty much a simpler alternative. Add that basically much of the discussion is founded on uncertain basis since there isn't a document about what exactly eapi is supposed to be, nor other details that you considered compulsory to get a clue about what's being discussed, so there isn't quite a way to say what's good and what isn't beside polling who is hacking package managers about alternatives and have an idea of what the dev base likes better if there are equivalent solutions. and NO there isn't a compelling reason to do anything _real_soon_ lu -- Luca Barbato Gentoo Council Member Gentoo/linux Gentoo/PPC http://dev.gentoo.org/~lu_zero -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
