Hi,
Linux 2.6.16 will be in the tree very soon. Assuming there aren't any
major problems, we'll hopefully be marking it stable in 2-3 weeks.
As usual, please bring any conflicts (e.g. compilation failures of
kernel module ebuilds against 2.6.16) to our attention by making them
block bug
Hi list.
I've been working on getting a Gentoo version of Debians resolvconf package
into portage. It's basically a re-write of the internals (which I don't like)
but the command line, setup and plugin system are 100% compatible (except for
the plugins which may need one line changing). As

I would say gentoo-resolvconf as it's a rewrite/fork.

why not having it implemented as eselect module? ^^;
I am not familiar with eselect.
Also, I fail to see the benefit of using the eselect framework
when /sbin/functions.sh provides what I need as a base.
Of course, feel free to talk me around.
Since we have switched to using splash-themes-livecd over a year ago,
I'd like to whack this package. We have only 1 2.4-based kernel that I
am aware of that has bootsplash support, so it is very likely that this
is completely unused anymore. If there's no objections in the next few
days, I'll

Definately change the name of the package (if not the script itself)

Agreed if keeping the old name with a gentoo prefix/suffix is chosen.
However, nearly all Gentoo system tools are ewhatever (not only portage
related either, as there's eselect), so I'd suggest eresolv.

Not sure if you have seen this or not. Check out Conary [1] from
rPath. Think of it as Rpm+Ebuild+Distributed. It's done by some
people who used to be at Redhat and in one of the whitepapers, they
specifically mention portage/ebuild.

Well,
I think a lot of what I've been thinking recently has already been said

concerned that I'm going to get extra responsibility without any real
positive aspects for me. I don't really *want* access to check into
