That doesnt work if you ever need to install your favourite stable version on |
| 10 |
a new machine, or re-emerge it for any reason. "emerge sync" is likely to |
| 11 |
have removed those old ebuilds. |

Ive been running my servers from my own tree since late last year, and it |
| 14 |
works well. My tree is a snapshot of the standard portage tree on that day, |
| 15 |
with any bug-fixes copied from the public portage tree into my |
| 16 |
/usr/local/portage. |

I am happy with this arrangement. |
