> as for the catagory, i personally don't care. the origional bug was filed to
> desktop-misc at g.o, and most of our packages go in x11-misc. if the media herds
> will be willing to take over the package, then it can be moved. until then, i'd
> like to keep it in x11-misc.

> as for symlinking and slotting... i don't see the point. afaik, the only
> difference between releases is a few scripts and an _increase_ in the number of
> images. that makes slotting somewhat pointless.
> 
> even more use flags also seems pointless. it already has 6 rather cryptic ones...
> 
> the ebuilds you reference also undo many of the features that the one in portage
> contains... if you would like to create a diff against that of exactly what you
> would like to add/subtract, i would be willing to look. however, i rather like
> the current ebuild
> 
> one more thing... if you want openclipart to be available on more platforms,
> file a new bug entitled "x11-misc/openclipart arch testing" and CC all the
> relevent platforms. be sure to include only _relevent_ platforms... i doubt arm
> will want an ebuild that creates 7390245872039458263409 huge image files for no
> reason (as an example)
> 
> if there is a good reason to do any of this which i am somehow missing, either
> email me or reopen the bug
