I have been using pEbuilds, which is good, but an official site with decent features is long overdue. Keep up the good work.

I do use packages.larrythecow.org tho. It’s been by far the best package site for the way I work (I just can’t stand the ‘official’ one).

I’m looking forward to seeing the new version. Best of luck, let us know if there’s any way we can help.

Do not despair!
Keep up the good work!

I too lately get little feedback when I ask for it even. But like you, it seems sometimes the only time you hear anything is when it doesn’t work.

Don’t fret. It seems to me that a lot of people are understanding of your rebuild and are waiting patiently. I’ve seen a few posts in that regards.

Keep up the good work. If you need any help interfacing with portage for info retrieval I would be more than happy to try and help.
