... well, along those lines, the list of licenses are not pertinent |
| 13 |
to the system unless the software that relates to them is installed; |
| 14 |
maybe emerge should automatically during the merge phase ensure the |
| 15 |
license files are copied to the main system in say /var/lib/licenses |
| 16 |
or similar? |

The system can exist with /usr/portage not installed at any given |
| 19 |
time, now (I have systems that NFS-mount it, but I only bother to do |
| 20 |
so when i'm going to emerge something). If licenses not existing is |
| 21 |
going to be a problem then we should resolve this no matter what. |
