With one file and use flags for each version or with one ebuild file per slot? Fedora 21 was the last release with a release name so if we package 22+ later, their ebuilds would be non-meta in nature. I'm not sure how to blend that into the use-flag version (yet for a meta package all these files seem overkill too). Do you have some third option in mind? Best Sebastian
