And that's why we speack about a community effort, and bugtrackers exist. So you can let the relevant people know and the next one to read the handbook will find a solution if s/he has the same problem. The handbooks didn't magically appear out of thin air in 1 second as they are now, nor did Gentoo. It's not "The community vs. you", you are part of the community since the very moment you start using linux. No manual is perfect, the difference is that here at least you have the chance to change it to make it better. -- Jesús Guerrero
