*Then* would be the time to change the extension. As long as the ebuild is bash-parseable with an appropriate environment, it doesn't make sense to change the extension because a env-variable set or a comment are more natural methods. If/when the format changes to something not parseable by bash, then it will be time to change the extension. And then how to mark (sub-)version will depend on the chosen new format, in case of xml that would be the dtd information. I suspect the rejection of the extension change will be there as long as the fundamental format (bash script) doesn't change. OG. -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
