You mean "two out of three blatently ignored long-standing behaviour |
6 |

You mean "Paludis carefully emulated Portage behaviour, and is now |
11 |
somehow being blamed for the whole matter, to the extent that people |
12 |
are trying to use threats (to the effect of 'I'm going to deliberately |
13 |
break packages for Paludis users") to try to get their way in the |
14 |
discussion". |

There's nothing random about it. Files' mtimes are reset to the |
19 |
current time while being merged, just as Portage did for years. |
