Wouldn't this effectively shove the requirement of triggering whatever uninstall script/app bundled with the windows app, onto portage? I can't really see any clean way to do that. Sure, might be nice/easier using emerge, but I don't see any clean/easy way portage could actually provide the expected support for it. Doesn't help that ebuilds aren't interactive, and windows app installation are exactly the other way around :) ~brian -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
