portage-2.2
==================================
+* FEATURES=preserve-libs is enabled by default.
* Portage now warns if an ebuild repository does not have a name, as several
new features in 2.2 make use of or require named repositories. The repository
name is stored in profiles/repo_name in each repository.
-* Package set support: There are several important notes regarding package
- sets:
- - they may currently only include simple and versioned atoms or other sets,
- use conditionals or any-of constructs aren't possible yet
- - sets can be referenced either in other file-based sets or as argument to
- emerge, but not in ebuilds, config files or other tools at this time.
- - packages won't be unmerged if they are referenced by an installed package
- set (with the exception of the world set, and installed being determined
- by the world_sets file).
-* The "selected" package set, which includes packages listed in
- /var/lib/portage/world, has been extended to include nested sets that may
- be listed /var/lib/portage/world_sets.
portage-2.1.11
==================================
* User-defined package sets can now be created by placing files in the
/etc/portage/sets/ directory. Refer to the emerge(1) and portage(5) man
pages for more information.
+* The "selected" package set, which includes packages listed in
+ /var/lib/portage/world, has been extended to include nested sets that may
+ be listed /var/lib/portage/world_sets.
