While that bug explains your issues with the webapp people in general and stuart in particular it is not related to webapp-config at all. Looking at that bug, and the issues discussed in this thread I do get to the point where I feel that instead of buggering people about packages, it would perhaps be better to get those features into portage whose absense causes the problems. The quality of the distribution would be better suited with a portage that supports USE-flag dependencies, dependencies between useflags in a package, sourcefile renaming / DIST_PREFIX, etc. Once that is supported, I'm also sure that those people involved will be more than happy to fix their ebuilds to use those features. I do agree with them though that the distribution should not be held back by missing features in portage. Especially since those features have been missing (recognized as such) for ages.
