Exactly. This installer is based on the GRP platform which afaik depends |
8 |
on some meta packages to make the major choices. The installer should |

follow those toplevel ebuild choices. |

That sounds like you just get the manual on top and have to give |
16 |
commands at the bottom. I think what the installer should do is just |
17 |
give a quick and easy path, people using an installer are probably not |
18 |
interested in all those lowlevel commands (otherwise they wouldn't be |
19 |
wanting to use it). |
