Hi,

I'm about to checkin a number of ebuilds that bring php into gentoo-alt
land and wanted to double check what the opinions are about overriding
eclasses in prefix-users. The following messages would be generated for
everyone using the prefix-users overlay:

|  * Overlay eclasses override eclasses from PORTDIR:
|  * 
|  *   '/Gentoo/usr/portage/local/layman/prefix-users/eclass/depend.php.eclass'
|  *   '/Gentoo/usr/portage/local/layman/prefix-users/eclass/php4_4-sapi.eclass'
|  *   '/Gentoo/usr/portage/local/layman/prefix-users/eclass/php5_2-sapi.eclass'
|  *   
'/Gentoo/usr/portage/local/layman/prefix-users/eclass/phpconfutils.eclass'
|  * 
|  * It is best to avoid overridding eclasses from PORTDIR because it will
|  * trigger invalidation of cached ebuild metadata that is distributed
|  * with
|  * the portage tree. If you must override eclasses from PORTDIR then you
|  * are advised to run `emerge --regen` after each time that you run
|  * `emerge
|  * --sync`. Set PORTAGE_ECLASS_WARNING_ENABLE="0" in /etc/make.conf if
|  * you
|  * would like to disable this warning.

Dirk.
