Users don't follow gentoo-dev to see last-rites. For whatever reason, I didn't see the package.mask entry when upgrading after freshly sync'ing only a couple of hours ago. Ideally, the news entry would be out well before the mask, to provide even more lead time to upgrade and ferret out problems. if only because package masks show up so insistently and ugly. -- ...jsled http://asynchronous.org/ - a=jsled; b=asynchronous.org; echo $...@${b}
