Ok. To be honest, I don't really care about the name, but I don't feel like having huge discussions about it either. We just chose something more sexy than /sw. Besides that, having chosen a default, doesn't mean you need to use it. We could name it like /Library/GentooPortageInstalledPackages, but that really looks ugly in your paths. Luckly there is shell completion, but it still is a bit too ugly to me. Finally, this is just a minor side issue, that I feel is completely irrelevant regarding the state of the project. -- Fabian Groffen Gentoo for Mac OS X Project -- Interim Lead -- [email protected] mailing list
