[gentoo-user] qmail-mysql masked entries
First off, many thanks to the gentoo developers for bringing us such a stable and configable linux distro. I have several gentoo boxes in use for both production and personal use and they are a joy to maintain. Keep up the fantastic work, we all appreciate it, even though we don't all the time show it. Secondly, I have been trying to install qmail-mysql for a few days now and keep getting that the packages are masked. Is it somewhat stable to unmask them and try an install or is it still too new? I looked in the standard qmail ebuild and all the mysql options seem to be removed so it looks like like the qmail-mysql ebuild is the only way to go here, unless I compile from source, which I prefer to keep the package management system in place and updating. Thanks for any advice. Wayne -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
