But if you do that, portage won't update it or anything else outside
portage.  I VERY rarely install anything outside of portage.  Right now,
I have nothing installed on my system that is not taken care of by
portage.  I keep it that way to make sure everything is updated and
bugs/fixes are taken care of even I forget.
