[I will be going to systemd since it is aparently required for gnome-3.8. I first want to try systemd on a test system so am building that one up.]
On my main system (currently running openrc) I have masked all of gnome-3.8. I wonder if this was an error and I can remove the mask. Is it the case that 1. Running openrc instead of systemd means you must mask gnome-3.8 or 2. It is ok to emerge gnome-3.8 without a mask but some pieces will stay at 3.6? In other words can I eliminate my file /etc/portage/package.mask/gnome-3.8 with all the 3.8 builds? thanks, allan
