Hi, what are our current heuristics to decide if a package goes into main tree or stays in the science overlay? Two years ago I spent a lot of time to get my beloved Macaulay2 tree ready and we even had a stable version (getting old now). Stabilising a new version is blocked among other things because the build system does not respect a custom AR (bug 474784) and RANLIB (bug 474788). Even if its not too hard, I'm not going to fix those. This would be just ridiculous. I probably know all the users of Macaulay2 on Gentoo personally. None of them want to use a different ar. So, should I treeclean M2 and move it back to overlay only?
