Can't hurt. My feeling is tho it won't get done. Things in package.mask are there for a reason, quite often because they are broken, break other packages, or do other nasty or untested things. You could then argue that they should be in portage in the first place, but they need testing by people with the knowledge and experience to test and/or recover from a nasty mess. - -- Mike Williams -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/S9GUInuLMrk7bIwRAhbaAKCWlKhkbQi0f/+WMAENoAx7wZgnIQCfQmpN p6VuL7MtDtFO0Xm8F2lse74= =EOdK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
