As an aside, I consistently found Gentoo's portage tree far too unstable
even for development use (2006-09)... unfortunately the maintainers of
portage were more than happy to break your system; without even using the
news feature of portage to warn of impending doom.

I switched to Arch in 2009 for a short while then on to Debian (testing)
and have never looked back since.

Regards,
Stonie.
