Why not mention it, along with "(experimental)" ? We are not packaging things - our users are free to do as they wish. I can understand the reason for giving a strong warning to people who provide binaries, and also for shipping an experimental option in a release - if people know about it, they can choose to test it. It' s only a package of games, if it breaks then BLFS users can rebuild without it. I assume people must pass "--with-clutter" to enable it. ĸen -- Nanny Ogg usually went to bed early.
