No, symlinking sucks for various reasons. Here are some: - filesystem access is slow - moving packages from one category to another gets even worse because you have to check for deadlinks - you have to check for deadlinks anyway because people forget to remove them when removing packages - good luck with that on Gentoo/Prefix-Interix -- ------------------------------------------------------- Tiziano Müller Gentoo Linux Developer, Council Member Areas of responsibility: Samba, PostgreSQL, CPP, Python, sysadmin E-Mail : [email protected] GnuPG FP : F327 283A E769 2E36 18D5 4DE2 1B05 6A63 AE9C 1E30
