euscan-ng is a fork of Bernard Cafarelli's euscan: https://github.com/voyageur/euscan
|

which is a fork of Corentin Chary's euscan: https://github.com/iksaif/euscan
|

|
||||
euscan is available in portage as a dev package (app-portage/euscan-9999).
|
||||
This tool allows to check if a given package/ebuild has new upstream versions
|
||||

|
||||
and related urls.

|
||||
how it should scan packages, while euscan uses only what can already be found

how it should scan packages, while euscan-ng uses only what can already be found
|
||||
in ebuilds. Of course, we could later add some informations in metadata.xml
|
||||
to help euscan do its job more efficiently.
