For all those young devs out there still in college/university. You
will find that time accelerates as you age. 3 months may seem a long
time for you now, but give it another 5-10 years and you'll discover
that 3 months can go by quite quickly. Especially with a family (wife,
kids, pets) and a full time job.

the major re-write. From that it cleans either distfiles or packages if
invoked by either the eclean-dist or eclean-pkg symlinks. If invoked by
eclean itself then it looks for the target in the arguments. So Brian's
proposal is not something totally new, never been done before...
While this proposes something a little different. It is still very much

ep 42 news reporting feature I just added to layman-2.0. I had to
patch layman to get around this issue of the mismatched names by getting
the correct name from portage which is needed for the portage
news-reporting function that layman will do after an add/sync
operation.
Is this something we should specify for them to match?
My thinking is that they should, at the very least, for consistency.

I believe it is still needed as a standalone utility to fix existing

pkgs, not existing ones.
I still see those problems coming up in the forums, although not nearly
