Stupid question: Why would we really need this ? |

This should only be availble in Gentoo Special Edition - for the |
23 |
mathematically inclined. |

Before this is completely settled, do we we have other libraries of which |
38 |
we might want different versions installed, that need special attention ? |
39 |
|

Reason I am asking is that if, say libxsltproc should be installed for |
41 |
multiple versions, we might want to abstract out commonalities between |
42 |
libxsltproc and libqt. If nobody knows of other troublesome libraries at |
43 |
this point, let's use Dan's solution and review it later if it breaks. |
