Has someone tried out Matthias Benkmann's package users approach to package management? If so, could you please answer the following questions: -did you encounter any unexpected problems, e.g. ones not mentioned in the hint at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/hints/downloads/files/more_control_and_pkg_man.txt;
-did you find any disadvantages;

I don't use it myself, but I do know it's one of the primary causes of problems reported in the #lfs-support IRC channel. Granted, many of the problems seem to be due to users that just don't have sufficient experience but try it anyway (due to the fact it's mentioned in the book as an LFS-specific package management method), but I think that, even taking that into account, it's really more trouble than it's worth.
