That was what I recalled about the openrc discussion too. It is coming
but just not sure when. Me, I'm not switching until it starts getting
closer to that time. It, like some of the newer versions of portage,
appears to be stable and is used by many people but is not marked
stable yet. Both of those sort of confuse me sometimes.
You're mixing two different definitions of stable. Portage 2.2 is
certainly reliable, but it is anything but stable with a new version
coming out every day at the moment,.
Well, I run unstable portage here and it seems stable and reliable to
me. I know they are adding things and fixing things pretty regular but
most packages do that anyway and a lot of them are marked as stable.
I read somewhere that the reason some of the later versions of portage
are not stable is not because the new ones are not ready but because
they want more testing of the old versions. Not sure why that is tho.
