Description

Copying around exlibs is stupid. We need something like master_repositories to provide a way to use exlibs from other repositories.

Change History

hmm... what about having the search path for exlibs be... the current repo, the master repo (if specified), then any other repo with format = exheres, in order of importance.

not sure how much would be involved in that, but i'd assume it would basically involve paludis putting more into the EXLIBSDIRS env var

Mmm, that's quite a bit simpler to do, and a lot less messy. Certainly worth considering...
