I like that. Haven't got to even reaching the "dev in training" stage, but I'd like to have some place where I can ask general gentoo-dev questions. I have a couple of projects which I'd like to get working with a simple "emerge". Well. One which is essentially a single project (LedgerSMB)

[gentoo-user] openvpn and ipp.txt

2016-09-03 Thread Bill Kenworthy
