There have been other threads similar to this and I wonder if there is 
something not quite right about the whole discussion...

It seems to me that there are many individuals who have learned and 
loved the whole LFS/BLFS experience (I count myself in this group BTW). 
I have found, and it seems so have others, that there comes a point when 
it becomes too hard (or time consuming) to continue living with the pure 
LFS/BLFS distro for day-to-day tasks. That's why I use Ubuntu on my 
desktop.

Perhaps - and this is an idea for discussion and a good "Pipe Dream" - 
that there should be another member of the *LFS family... Perhaps MLFS 
where the M stood for Managed, or PLFS for Packaged LFS. And let's get 
the community to somehow use and develop the fantastic work done in the 
LFS and BLFS books and create a version that is basically LFS and *your* 
BLFS with some kind of package management control.

Is this a stupid idea? Is this Gentoo?
