I'm not trying to sabotage anything but total misuse of the feature.
Would have the same objections wrt whatever other "critical" news that'd
constitute completely inappropriate usage of GLEP42 features. (And I'd
expect that you'd show a bit more knowledge of the GLEP you are a
co-author of, frankly.)

The relevant paludis output has been pasted twice already, so let me try
one last time:

<snip>
  ... Use of token '*' is deprecated, use '*/*' instead
</snip>

How much more explanation about this 'critical' change do the users
*need*? If they don't get the above, maybe paludis and Linux just isn't
for them and they should stick to Windows. Meanwhile there's no need to
establish a precedent of using critical news for PEBKAC issues.
