No, I don't. But that doesn't mean the user shouldn't make the choice. Even if it is the wrong one from your point of view with your additional knowledge. We're a metadistribution, not a distribution. We're supposed to be all about allowing the user to tailor each and every package to his/her exact specification. I think the policy of 'never die' would be understandable for a distribution, but I don't feel it's appropriate for a metadistribution. > Heck, it's hard enough figuring out a usable set of USE flags for PHP. How so? We've worked very hard to ensure that's not the case. What have we missed? Best regards, Stu -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
