Let's try to aim to do an EAPI=2 sometime soonish since Portage now
has USE flag depends in version 2.2 which is looming on the horizon.
It'd be nice to hit the ground running with supporting these. I know
it'll be trivial for the Paludis and pkgcore guys to make this work
since they already support USE flag depends.
So... let's get the party started.
The question is then, what features do people want there?
I've seen a few things mentioned, but I presume there are two
restrictions -
1) feature needs to be reasonably useful to enough people
2) feature needs to be implementable in a short enough timeframe
So EAPI 2 is not "everything shiny", but a small iterative improvement
to EAPI 1.
Suggest features then and let's discuss!
