beandog...  beandog...  beandog...   
Oh YESSS! The one who invented ZNURT!
Did you think about fixing a couple of reamaining glitches (mainly around package description) on the (marvelous as well as usefull) site (I have been advocating for years) before actually coming out of retirement ? 
Oh wait : Nevermind ! Welcome Back!
Oh wait: I get a wishlist for you to work on... 
BTW, I think you must know that desultory has been desperatly promoting zougloub during your retirement... ( https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-6482554.html#6482554] )

Heh, thanks for the welcomes back everyone.
Lemme know what you need fixed on Znurt. I poked at it a bit earlier this week and started fixing some bugs.
Lemme know what else is on your wishlist, too, I'll see what I can do.

I love you guys. *group hug*
On another note, any chance of getting (re-)added as a forum moderator for 'Multimedia'? Usually my activity is pretty low-key, but I will go in and update stickies and join threads on occasion to help out.

OK... anyone else to welcome beandog... go on go on... welcomes are deserved! True!
(BTW, I see no less than 3 admins applausing your come-back but no one of them ever thought pushing some applause smiley. )
Well... nobody else... sure ?
OK... since you said you are back to real work...
I'm a little puzzled by the description field znurt displays.
Let's take an example... taken... absolutely... randomly! 
The marvelous, incomparable, unique : sys-kernel/ck-sources
So, this absolutely honest package cares to define | Code: | K_BRANCH_ID="${KV_MAJOR}.${KV_MINOR}"
DESCRIPTION="Full Linux ${K_BRANCH_ID} kernel sources with Con Kolivas' high
performance patchset and Gentoo's genpatches" |
KV_MAJOR and KV_MINOR being defined by the kernel-2 eclass.
when displaying the result of a search on ck-sources or displaying categories/sys-kernel, znurt displays :
| Quote: | | Full Linux 3.6 kernel sources with Con Kolivas' high performance patchset and Gentoo's genpatches. |
More, when clicking on whatever particular release of the package within the <table class='releases'>, the page I get still displays the same description irrespective of the release I am currently viewing.
My opinion is that it's... suboptimal.
I can understand that znurt does not actually run the code of the ebuild in order to be aware of variable values.
In which case, I would think preferable to substitute ${.*} to "" when parsing the DESCRIPTION field.
Of course... znurt provides so useful services (It's probably a service that I use more than any package in the tree (ck-sources excepted of course... ) that... I am just nit-picking.

A rather good chance, especially with you having saved me the trouble of asking.

Perhaps we have transcended the smiley plane, instead engaging in fraternal communication by means of snark. |

Aw, thanks man. I'm already mad with power! Or maybe I just need a cookie. I can't tell the difference.

Nit-picks are always welcome, I'm the same way. Would you do me a big favor though and file bugs on the github repo? kthxbai

Edit: Also, ck-sources are t3h awesum.
