No I wasn't saying that it's useless to use PATCHES.. actually, if this is
going to be fixed (the failure stuff) I think I'll start using it more.
What I was saying was that Mike's comment could have been read as "just move
to epatch, if something breaks (like packages dying as the patch fails to
apply) it was broken QA-wise before.No irony, really. -- Diego "Flameeyes" Pettenò Gentoo Developer - http://dev.gentoo.org/~flameeyes/ (Gentoo/FreeBSD, Video, Gentoo/AMD64, Sound, PAM)
