See above: not every developer is technically capable of evaluating
the
underpinnings of the tools we use. For most of us, those
underpinnings
do not matter.
I find the reasoning to be quite justified.
It's probably a little early to initiate such a proposal, seeing as
the
PMS is still undergoing review. Why don't we just let the current
course of events continue, instead of trying to force any specific
issue? I'm sure that if the council decides to initiate a project to
seriously pursue replacing portage as the official package manager,
they
will take into account these repercussions of which you speak. At the
very least, you can bring them up at that time.
I look forward to using a better package manager then :)
Cheers,
