Howdy,

I been getting a error message about repoman not being in good shape for
a while.  I thought maybe it was something that would be fixed soon
enough or it would spit out a error that makes sense to me.  Well, been
a few weeks and it is still complaining about it.  I tried to update
repoman itself so that it would give the most information.  It doesn't
say much when doing my usual world update except that it is skipping it.
This is the most informative error I can get it to give me.


Repoman has been deprecated [1]; its recommended replacement is pkgdev

Well that explains it.  I have --oneshot in make.conf to keep my world
file clean.  When I read your post, I looked and repoman was in the
world file.  I have no clue why I put it in there.  I don't even know
when I put it there.  So, I unmerged it and made sure it is removed from
the world file.  I don't know if I even need pkgdev so I'm running
emerge -auDN world to see if anything depends on it.  Waiting . . .
waiting . . . waiting.  It says nothing needs it, I have no idea why I
need it either so, I have a nice clean output from emerge again. 

Thanks much for the help.  Never occurred to me that it was in the world
file and is dead.  :/   I figured I did it.  ROFL
