A question I cant see answered anywhere though its been asked:
What are the implications of adding this "snippet" - will it come back
to bite us (users) when the next version of portage comes along?
and in addition:
- none of my systems have a /etc/portage/bashrc so Ive created them, but
should they be executable, have a hash-bang line, ... ?
- will this snippet fix the problems with "equery check" marking
libraries as broken after lafilefixer is run? (I presume an emerge -e
world will be needed to update the database ...)
