I think the important point from the original post, which appears to have been lost, is that removing PA is a trivial (by Gentoo standards) task. Negate one USE flag and update world and the system just keeps working without PA. I discovered the opposite, that enabling it is just as easy. That means it does really matter whether it is enabled or not in the default profiles, because anyone running a completely default system is wasting their time using Gentoo. On for desktops and off for servers and other minimal profiles seems eminently sensible and all of this argument makes bike-shedding seem like important stuff. -- Neil Bothwick Why do they call it a TV set when you only get one?
