Ah ok, I just thought it would be easier, to get things going and catch up with upstream, to release an ebuild that only supports the suid mode of operation, and then, taking the necessary time, improve it in future releases, rather than supporting all the features right from the beginning. But of course this is just my personal opinion. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
