14 I disagree here - it is of the same genre as portage, if we move
15 paludis, which is NOT (and obviously you are talking without having used
16 it - which shows in many of your emails) along the lines of rpm, dpkg,
17 etc. Instead of being dead set against it, create a chroot and try it
18 out. I do realize this requires actual work and thinking, which is more
19 than it takes to write an email, but I do suggest to people to try it
20 out before dismissing it.
