I know what you mean, I also think there should be a way to protect |
| 2 |
ebuilds that you have changed (ie taking off the ~, or adding options |
| 3 |
to the configure line) during an emerge sync |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
also, Im just curious, how has gentoo been for you as a server. I have |
| 6 |
been using gentoo for desktop machines, but all my servers are still |
| 7 |
either redhat or FreeBSD. has it been stable? secure? |

Just wondrin, |

I would really like to see a separation of system packages from optional |
| 17 |
packages. The ~arch flags should only apply to system packages. There |
| 18 |
should be an option to easily install the latest reasonable non-system |
| 19 |
packages. Currently, trying to mix stable with ~ causes emerge -u world to |
| 20 |
become a nightmare if you have many ~ packages installed. Manually updating |
| 21 |
the world file is a pain and unwieldy if you lucky enough to be maintaining |
| 22 |
many servers. |
