Hi,
Is there any other solution to the /etc/make.profile/package.provided
file? As we all know the /usr/portage/ dir gets wiped of custom files on
every sync. It seems kinda silly that there is a package.provided
solution but it gets wiped every time,

No, not for
Check out /etc/make.conf - that will override some settings. You aren't

Don't you see that cvs-emacs is not the same as emacs-cvs, or was this
just a typo on your part?

Hi All,
Given sddm is not working for my setup, as per bug #608690, I thought of
