Users editing the output of emerge --info and hiding they overlay usage is another problem. Anyway, overlays are not going away, so we just need to streamline our process of dealing with the resulting bugs. To bring this back on topic, users are going to get tree-cleaned ebuilds anyway, putting them in their local overlays if they want to use these packages. We're just facilitating them with a more centralized solution for this, as there is obvious demand for it. Plus, this may be a stepping stone for users fixing those packages and taking up proxy-maintainership. -- Cheers, Ben | yngwin Gentoo developer Gentoo Qt project lead, Gentoo Wiki admin
