Excellent - now that light has been shed on this minor detail, I'm sure you won't see that comment on pkgcore bugs again.

I'm pretty sure the aforementioned pingpong started as a result of a pkgcore bug. Thilo referred to one of Ciaran's first replies and as such, I see no reason to regard that reply as an ad hominem attack. Enough, I was only replying to a question brought up by Thilo, and I do not want to waste time on an endless discussion with other gentoo users. -- Anders Ossowicki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
