Yep. We don't claim to or aim to completely support Portage configs. > Test case is: > > FEATURES="strict" # test and stricter fail > > in make.conf ... if you had the tests you claim others lack that > would have been fixed a long time ago. No, we just don't bother supporting it. Remember that configs aren't part of PMS. Also note that if you had something like this in package.use: foo/bar baz # monkey Portage would until relatively recently (and after that section of PMS was written, for the profiles side of it) set USE="baz # monkey". Paludis chose to indicate an error rather than accept clearly nonsense input. There's no PMS violation here -- user configs aren't covered (and if you do use a Portage user configuration with Paludis, you get a big fat warning saying "this probably won't work, file tickets if you want stuff fixed"), and PMS restricts profile use files to behaviour safely supported by all EAPI 0 accepting Portage versions. -- Ciaran McCreesh
