While today already significant work exists along the lines of quality analysis for software product lines, there is much less work that addresses the evolution scenario. In this paper, we briefly describe different categories of approaches for identifying problems in product lines. Based on this we describe a new research direction for identifying problems in product line evolution scenarios.enTowards identifying evolution smells in software product linesText/Conference Paper1617-5468
