yes. As we were running out of time in GSoC, we didn't manage to better integrate merge.rb into port(1) sooner.
Is there still work going on with merge.rb? As far as I know pipping dropped all of his ports and works now on the prefixed version of Gentoo portage.
No, there is currently no one working on merge.rb; Elias wrote it for GSoC but currently isn't interested in universal builds. I'll integrate all of the functionality of merge.rb into port(1) so no one needs to work on it anyway. Elias joining Gentoo is perfectly o.k. for me. He has properly finished his GSoC job with us and if he is more interested in exploring portage etc. there is nothing to moan about. Regards, -Markus -- Dipl. Inf. (FH) Markus W.
