But USE=mp3 could mean mp3 decoding support in audio players, while
lame is not a decoder.

What about an off-by-default 'xserver' flag?

Since when is Gentoo supporting other distro's boot systems?

Isn't that what you asked?

That mail was sent 4 september 2005, according to the 'Received:'
headers. Is there any particular reason you're posting this three
months later?

Your previous status mail said 783. This would rather be a change of 285 :-)

It's as easy as emerge --oneshot noatun.

This may sound silly but, are you sure you removed the last period
there? The link works for me.


It wasn't working the first two hours after the mail was sent, but
after those two hours, it did.

Well. Marking a bug invalid doesn't make the real problem go away... but the
users.


I'd say that's exactly the intention of INVALID. If I were to file,
say, a bug in GCC at Gentoo's Bugzilla instead of GCC's, it would be
marked INVALID. (Unless, of course, the bug is caused by Gentoo's
patches.)
