Greetings -
Occasionally, I've contacted developers about repoman issues with
ebuilds when things are broken in portage. I generally run repoman
on the entire portage tree - a process that takes quite some time -
since not everyone wants to do this.
Frequently, the only new changes in the repoman report are the addition
of some warnings regarding whitespace - either Leading or Trailing.
For these warnings, I generally just fix the ebuilds myself since the
change is obvious and contacting developers about whitespace warnings
is pretty silly. If you find this happening to your favorite ebuild
please just take this as a gentle nudge to not ignore the repoman
warnings when you commit and move on with your life.
My expectation is that every commit to the portage tree is as
"repoman free" as possible. At one point, the repoman report was
over 20k lines. Let's not go there again.
Thanks,
Michael Sterrett
