I agree and I'm not sure what mgorny is basing his statement on anyway.
Apart from /local/, which I forget the purpose of, the default locations
for DISTDIR and PKGDIR still seem to be /usr/portage/distfiles
and /usr/portage/packages. I must admit that I'm struggling to find the
logic for this in Portage but those are the defaults nonetheless. So
why would they not exist? I'm certainly using them here and I would
like to see them in .gitignore.
