Revision history for PortageXS

0.2.12 2013-07-24T06:23:39Z
 [Bugfix]
 - Partial solution to b.g.o #264680, bailing on unreadable categories,
   including non-categories that are also unreadable such as 'package'. Its
   not ideal, but its better than bailing for a predominant chunk of users.

 [Dependencies::Added / develop requires]
 - Test::CPAN::Changes 0.19

   parts.

   recordPackageInWorld(), removePackageFromWorld()
 - formatUseflags(): Also handle suffixes (% and *)
 - added .cache dir to EXCLUDE_DIRS for use with paludis

   parameter to set the repository to use - Check for dirs before trying to
   access them

   if make.profile was an absolute path

   setting from make.conf to comply with portage (See `man make.conf` for
   further information); changes in UI::Console
 - Implemented caching for getUsedescs(), getHomedir(),
   getUsemasksFromProfile()
 - getUsedesc() is only a wrapper for getUsedescs() now
 - getUsedescs() now accepts an optional parameter that stores
   'category/package' when looking up local usedescs

   search modes
