In the case of kde ebuilds it's a slip-up, a side effect of kde-4.6 removal...
some code got refactored and moved to different package names. E.g.
kdebindings-ruby is now partly in korundum and krossruby... When one of us
then runs
find kde-base -name *4.6.5*ebuild -exec cvs rm -f {} +
and commits, oops, suddenly we have an empty dir kdebindings-ruby... :|
Obviously undesired but can happen, and repoman does not complain (yet).
(It makes no sense to do any last-riting here, in effect this is more like a
package move and we try to make it as transparent to the users as possible.)
Cheers, A
