True, just be aware that if you enable gtk *globally* you will end up building the gtk interface for absolutely everything which has that option. Far better (IMO, YMMV) is to use /etc/portage/package.use specify such things per package. Unless, of course, you like having a gtk GUI for everything. :) -- caveat utilitor ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤ ♫
