| 9 | I am very much in favour to have a package that controls those symlinks. |
| 10 | What is not immediately clear to me is what would that mean for eselect |
| 11 | in long run. Is it so that you'd like to keep eselect around and alive |
| 12 | parallel to those sys-meta category packages, or would there be push to |
| 13 | eventually get rid of most of eselect and where possible switch to sys-meta? |
