Hi,

Not really a request for help, but I thought it would be useful to others
who use Gentoo (http://www.gentoo.org/) to know that you can now install
CRAN and bioconductor packages using Gentoo's package management systme
Portage
(http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=2&chap=1)

This is thanks to the efforts of Auke Booij as part of his Google Summer of
Code project.

Instructions for how to use this excellent feature are on the gentoo-science
mailing list...

(The archives also contain various weekly updates).

This provides a very clean and efficient way of installing packages under a
Gentoo install.

My thanks to Auke for his efforts on developing this.

Neil
