That might be acceptable. python and portage will always be present on a Gentoo system. It's a litle weird, but may benefit everyone in this situation. I'll get around to testing this soon. I'd prefer that portage be ~arch before you make python ~arch, as it'll cause headaches otherwise. The only reason I haven't yet is that it can break the GUI's for portage. I'll be notifing the authors to be sure that they are up to date, as soon as I have internet access again. It's down as I'm writing this email. > * Maybe we should think about using a non version specific directory for > Python modules to ease upgrade. I agree. --NJ -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
