[gentoo-dev] Last rites for media-gfx/fbi

Hello, I have just added media-gfx/fbi to package.mask and will remove it from the tree in about 30 days. The program is no longer developed upstream in its original form. Instead, it is now a part of the 'fbida' project, which provides a bunch of simple applications for viewing and editing imag

[gentoo-dev] [ALERT] USE flag changes

I'm touching ebuilds that IUSE="tcltk", just like I did with IUSE="qt". tcltk is being broken into "tcl" and "tk" USE flags... finally.. it was something that needed to happen ages ago but I'm finally getting around to it. So this is your notice. http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17808
