Agenda call: ---

Agenda announcement: ---

\agendaitem{Libtool archive (.la) files}
\index{.la files}\index{package!sys-devel/libtool}
\index{package!sys-apps/portage}

The council decided that removing la files is the right thing to do, but the 
issue will be taken to the gentoo-dev mailing list to allow developers to
express their opinions/objections, if any. \dev{jmbsvicetto} will handle this.

The removal will only happen after portage-2.1.9 or later has been
stabilized, since this is the first version that can fix la files automatically.

At that time, a news item will be released to inform users on how to fix any 
issues that may arise from the removal.


\agendaitem{EAPI 4}
\index{EAPI!4}\index{REQUIRED_USE}\index{PMS}

Sebastian Luther (few_) suggested finalizing EAPI 4 with the features currently
implemented in portage (\bug{273620}).

The council agreed that this is a good idea, as long as a specification list is 
built and PMS patches are written for all the features.

\dev{ferringb} will write documentation for REQUIRED_USE. The council will 
finalize things in the next meeting. People responsible for EAPI 4 should be 
pinged beforehand so they can attend that meeting.
