h that are up to date should have this. OK, "masked" was the wrong word. Perhaps I should have said "unstable" or "keyworded". Anyway, yes, installing that newer lvm2 fixed the problems. Probably worth a note somewhere in the upgrade docs anyway Cheers Ed W -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

oblem, but creating a system which can be edited quickly and easily in a granular fashion. Eg imagine all the guideXML docs being in a git repo with open access to pull/push changes - you could build a web engine around that which rebuilds the web pages interactively as people push edits and this would be cool! In the meantime wiki's are just trying to solve the same goal of easy edits with small granularity of edits However, I love the idea of a "wiki" based around git using GuideXML! (probably it kind of works like this right now - I think it's the access control which is the secret sauce...) I ain't out to stop ya'll from using a wiki. I do agree that they have some advantages. However, I will point out how limited wikis are. They're not a magic bullet that will solve all our problems. Definitely. Good luck Ed W

airly obvious if an application requires a compiler and you didn't install one then you have a conflict of interest...) Have another look at gentoo! I definitely believe that it's flexibility to build you highly customised packages, plus strong templating of those packages, plus decent ability to distribute binaries of the end result is a very strong combo! Better binary support is really the only thing missing here, but it's pretty adequate as it stands! Good luck Ed W

nt OpenRC works very nicely on a minimal (embedded) system using uclibc/busybox in a couple of MB.
