The following wording might be a little more neutral; i found when reading the original version (until i reached the end that is) it seemed as if the flag was being removed rather than just not being default-enabled anymore. ----- The multislot use flag in sys-boot/grub-2.x, which had been enabled by default, is now off by default. When the flag is enabled, all upstream binaries and documentation are renamed to "grub2" so as not to collide with grub-0. Now that the use flag is no longer default-enabled, these names will revert back to their upstream defaults. For example, grub2-mkconfig will become grub-mkconfig, grub2-install will become grub-install, etc. If you wish to retain the previous naming scheme please make sure to explicitly enable USE="multislot" on sys-boot/grub in the usual manner. -----
