I have been thinking about this specific option. I will admit I don't know if this has already been noted, but would this create the possibility of multiple ebuilds with the same $C/$P-$PV? Currently the filesystem enforces the uniqueness of that tuple, will that uniqueness be allowed to lapse? (i.e. allow multiple ebuilds for the same $C/$P-$PV with different EAPIs?) If not, how is anyone proposing to enforce the uniqueness here? Just a silly thought... RobbieAB
