FYI: Gentoo no longer contains the sumo packages

Hi,

Just a quick note to let people here know that I just dropped support
for the sumo packages from Gentoo. Instead there is now a meta packages
(called app-xemacs/xemacs-packages-all) to install all the individual
packages contained in the sumo packages in one go. This solved a
long-standing bug where a mix of individual packages and the sumo
packages would overwrite each other's files and thus cause installation
problems for people.

The main reason for mailing to this list is to thank Mats for helping
with the initial python script that generates the file list for the
package. Yes Mats, it finally got done. :-)

Kind regards,

Hans
