I have no objection to it being flagged on by default in desktop profiles, |
| 14 |
but "Gentoo-specific minor config changes" concerns me, since I take it as |
| 15 |
given that installing for a specific distro implies config changes to work |
| 16 |
with that distro, and not having those because I have turned branding off |
| 17 |
sounds bad for me as a user and seems a confusion of purpose. (It could |
| 18 |
lead to more optional config changes bundled in future which wouldn't be |
| 19 |
apparent without knowledge of the ebuild.) |
