The only benefit I can see portage having is that you get to compile it yourself. This is also the first step of why it is inferior. All the other reasons why it is inferior stem from that. I am happy to listen to *other* reasons why it is better. FLAGS or other similar reasons come back to compling it yourself, and have already been covered.
How does debian's apt-build differ from portage? I know this is a broad question, but they seem to do the same thing from where I sit. -Mike -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
