The aim is to document things that Portage does intentionally, along with things that Portage does unintentionally if that behaviour is required by a lot of the tree, whilst excluding things that are clearly Portage bugs. Which is, of course, not entirely quantifiable, rather vague and a pain in the ass to get right, which is another reason that it helps that everyone currently writing PMS is more or less on the same page in terms of what gets documented. -- Ciaran McCreesh Mail : ciaranm at ciaranm.org Web : http://ciaranm.org/ Paludis, the secure package manager : http://paludis.pioto.org/
