I think current dedication of pure-unstable arches on well-maintained and dependency consistent arches in dev and arches where dependency consistency is someway broken(Prefix) makes sense. Unless somebody wants to clean up some mess i have seen in Prefix deps by fulling package.use.mask in prefix profiles with tons of deps. Anyway, we have apropriate options in repoman for checking on dev and exp profiles, and, regarding the Prefix, i think we can try to move prefix profiles to dev when Prefix tree will be merged with gentoo-x86 -- Best regards, Sergey Popov Gentoo developer Gentoo Desktop Effects project lead Gentoo Qt project lead Gentoo Proxy maintainers project lead
