No, Portage can handle binary apps just fine. We have Java, Unreal Tournament 2k3/2k4, Doom 3, Neverwinter Nights... All kinds of binary-only apps. But all of them are closed-source (Except for the -bin version of some rather big packages, manly to save people the compile time...). It feels kinda wrong to install a binary package of a (small) open-source app on a source-based system... Its also weird having an opensource app that you can only compile using a non-free (as in beer) compiler... - -- [Name ] :: [Matan I.
