How about we just ignore ciaranm because he's got no valid complaints |
21 |
or objections to this particular portage behavior as shown in |
22 |
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=273261#c28. |

Relevant portion excerpted here for your convenience: |
25 |
"Additionally, in |
26 |
http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/portage/main/trunk/pym/portage.py?rev=3495&view=markup |
27 |
(hint: look for "recursive=1") and |
28 |
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=133740, with both predating the |
29 |
initial RFC for PMS sent to gentoo-dev mailing list, this behavior is |
30 |
discussed and shown to be a design feature, not a flaw or lack of QA |
31 |
in portage. This proves with certainty that it is PMS and the views of |
32 |
the reporter of this bug that are flawed, and not the behavior of |
33 |
portage." |

Problem solved. |
