OK, this is a question that's been bothering me.. What about the "improper inheritance if eclass" or whatever errors I often see during the unmerge of old packages after an update? When the question last came up (in general, not on unmerging packages), the answer was the system wasn't quite ready to handle the deluge of such errors just yet. It was new to portage and in a version still hard masked at the time for testing, IIRC. However, since then I've continued to see the QA Notice message, but most of the time during an unmerge of an old package after an update to a newer version. Thus, I've figured it's getting the old packages out of the way and it's not worth reporting those QA Notices on those old packages. Is that correct, or at least for someone generally keeping up with ~arch (in my case ~amd64), should I be reporting those on unmerges as well, now? -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
