OK, cool. I should probably mention some of the things I like about
portage (off the top of my head), incase it helps:
- The world file: A list of all packages that the /user/ elected to
install. It does not contain dependencies. It is the top level.
That might be a good idea. I had only planned to list all installed
packages.
- use-flags: Flags/keywords associated with packages that allow you to
turn specific features within packages on and off.
I currently have no plans of configurable packages. Either the complete
package is installed or nothing is installed.
Would you allow others to implement this, or somehow be open to it in
the future?
It might happen in the future. But currently I think it's unnecessary
and too complicated.
Of course, I can definitely understand not wanting to handle this right
now, due to scope creep.
Yeah, it won't happen in the first release.
