Recently when doing some builds I saw a bunch of lines that looked like:
PLEASE UPDATE TO YOUR PACKAGE TO USE linux-info.eclass
I don't really know what I'm supposed to do about that, it seems to be a message targeted at the devs of certain ebuilds (ie linux-headers). It appears that the ebuild author wasn't doing things in "an approved" way, so emerge sends out a bunch of warnings to try to get them to fix the problem.
To me, this looks like an internal finger pointing being brought into the open ie Fix your software, no you fix yours, no I'm gonna put a message saying yours is broken, etc... This stuff should be in bugzilla and on the lists.
The engrish, all caps and getting repeated 20 times indicate that this went out without sufficient review.
Cheers,
