I'd just like to point out that, to the best of my knowledge, portage actually switched *from* a "provides" model *to* the virtual system we use today. (This was more than a decade ago, before I started using Gentoo. I remember this because I vaguely recall seeing repoman and/or portage warnings about deprecated use of PROVIDES or some such in overlay ebuilds.) -- Marc Joliet -- "People who think they know everything really annoy those of us who know we don't" - Bjarne Stroustrup
