Glossary[edit]
Deprecated EAPI
A deprecated EAPI is no longer required for the upgrade path of users' systems. Its use is discouraged, and tools like pkgcheck will warn about this[1].
Banned EAPI
A banned EAPI must no longer be used, neither for new ebuilds, nor for updating of existing ebuilds[2].

<p>In the past, the ebuild environment has been defined by what Portage has supported. With the advent of alternative package managers, such a moving standard is no longer sufficient. The Package Manager Specification (PMS) aims to solve this by defining, independent of any package manager, what is and is not allowed in the tree, and what ebuilds may assume about their environment.
</p><p>It is also required to document what each value of the EAPI ebuild variable actually means. At present PMS aims to document all Council-approved EAPIs.
</p><p>A git repository with the document's sources can be found at:
</p>
<ul><li>Gitweb: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/pms.git/">https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/pms.git/</a></li>
<li>Git via HTTPS (read-only): https://anongit.gentoo.org/git/proj/pms.git</li>
<li>Git via SSH (read/write): git+ssh://git@git.gentoo.org/proj/pms.git</li></ul>
<p>A convenient way to be up to date with the current document is the live ebuild found in the Gentoo repository, called <span style="white-space: nowrap;" class="plainlinks" title="External link to https://packages.gentoo.org for the app-doc/pms package."><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/app-doc/pms"><span style="font-family: monospace; font-size: 95%; color: MidnightBlue;">app-doc/pms</span></a><span style="color: grey; margin-left: 0.1em; font-size: 70%;" class="fa fa-hdd-o fa-fw"></span></span> (TeX Live needs to be installed). Additionally, the latest approved version is available as ebuild of that package. Alternatively, <span style="white-space: nowrap;" class="plainlinks" title="External link to https://packages.gentoo.org for the app-doc/pms-bin package."><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/app-doc/pms-bin"><span style="font-family: monospace; font-size: 95%; color: MidnightBlue;">app-doc/pms-bin</span></a><span style="color: grey; margin-left: 0.1em; font-size: 70%;" class="fa fa-hdd-o fa-fw"></span></span> will install pre-built PDF and HTML files.
