It was already proposed, but didn't seem to get much support. It is equivalent to using the suffixes, but I see it rather as perfomarnce hit, not improvement. The package manger would have to look for ebuilds in the main dir and all the subdirs in case it doesn't have/can't use the cache. -- Best Regards, Piotr Jaroszyński -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
