I'm running a stage build with debianutils removed from system. I'll let everyone know the results. If it works, I'll do the same for a LiveDVD build, which covers most of the major packages in the tree. Sure, there might be a few stragglers after that, but I doubt that there would be too many. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Games Developer -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
