That would be a great answer. I look for trips and traps by doing an `emerge --pretend --verbose --changelog` every time I sync. Unfortunately, changes are often made with no entry in the log. When some change has significant effects, it is rare that even a passing mention is made regarding the precautions and prerequisites. I'm not suggesting yelling-at-the-user style "*** DANGER WILL ROBINSON ***" messages, but the terse kind suggested in Mr. Lawson's first message would be dandy. > You're on the wrong list for this.

On the other hand, a discussion on how to convince devs to make use of the existing capabilities would probably be welcome on gentoo-dev or, perhaps, gentoo-qa. -- Batou: Hey, Major...
