You know that posting ACTUAL emerge output might be more useful if you
want help, or if you think there is some improvement that could be
made to portage that you'd like somebody else to make.

While perhaps actual patches to improve things might be a bit too much
to expect from you, your attitude is likely to cause any portage
developers reading the list to think to themselves "let's watch him
squirm a while longer."

I'm sure the Gentoo Foundation will happily refund whatever you paid
for your Gentoo license key and issue you an apology if you ask them.
Of course, if you exercise this option we're going to have to insist
that you wipe all the hard drives in your home and we'll send a
license audit team out next week.

All of us get frustrated with portage from time to time, but most of
us have managed to recognize that it is the product of thousands of
hours of blood, sweat, and tears donated by people whose only reward
was that they know they did something to make the world a slightly
nicer place.  Try to pay it forward a bit if you could...
