Would it make sense to add (for example): gnome-games gnome-games is already the name of a package that contains all official GNOME games. Only a handful are also released and packaged separately. Useless for us IMHO. Cheers, Rémi

What about both ways using symlinks: kde-games/ksudoku -> games-puzzle/ksudoku ? Thanks, Norberto Personally I prefer all the "official" kde package in kde-base - it allows me to quickly know that this given package is part of the official KDE package set. I don't see a need for kde-games - it's pretty clear from the descriptions which of the kde-base packages are games, and for the reason stated above I don't like the idea of mixing "official" and "unofficial" packages. I suspect symlinks are likely to cause issues (what happens if you try to install both kde-games/ksudoku and games-puzzle/ksudoku?) and as far as I know are never used in the package tree. Package moves like this are occasionally going to happen, no matter how you structure the repository. The only real question here is whether this is a package move (in which case, I believe, portage goes through and updates /etc/portage/package.*, world and possibly custom sets contents automatically) or just a package mask (in which case it's up to the user to do all those updates) AllenJB

What kind of background is needed to maintain packages ? Well, I would like to do more than just writing documentation about Gentoo and promote its usage. I'm aramis_qc on Gentoo-Québec (gentoo-quebec.org). I sure am confident that I can be successful with the help of my friend d2_racing (Sylvain Alain) who now is a gentoo-dev.
