exclusively tackling the domains of Python and Perl modules? Or does it
also tackle ABI breakage of other packages?

If there aren't any complaints, I'll look into getting this done
possibly next weekend. At the moment, zhenghe (one of the boxes here)
has been reformatted, I'm setting up Gentoo 2008.0 on it, so I'll be
testing everything as I go.

es to us saying "Package foobar works on mips, can you please add
~mips for me", we normally don't worry about it.
Maintaining keywords on _every_ package in the tree, IMHO would be a
waste of effort unless there are a significant number of users actually
using _every_ package in th

one 2.6.12-rc2.
Perhaps something for packages could be rigged up? I would certainly
make use of such a system if one existed. If anyone's interested (in

companies own quite big chunks of the Linux kernel source.
So your suggestion is neither practical, nor does it help the patent
case in any way shape or form.

to mask packages that
have a particular licence? I'm not sure there, but that would be one
solution. I personally don't think it's necessary to go as far as
removing the ebuilds though... after all, it's not the ebuild that's
covered under the patent. :-)

Why not just use `chmod -R 0:0 ${D}`? That should have the desired effect?

Anyway, wouldn't security updates include the core system, rather than
