Aha, but do we really -need- 95% of the features? :) Personally (this is my investment in this project) I'd just like to see non-distutils ebuilds needing python support using PYTHON_TARGETS. Also, I'd like to see that anything at all which new-distutils (whatever it be called) might need the old python.eclass for be integrated into new-distutils (probably via new-python). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iF4EAREIAAYFAlBnGKkACgkQ2ugaI38ACPCUGQD/f2tf7bjyxkq52In7OrH+nDSL nWLUWc9btwRm3Uuyd3AA/3tFI8uOiqpAVS7Ze4ScCt1UHi7LdvXgYGZRxPbJUbvS =4o7s -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
