That's good news. I think Gentoo has a policy on not providing |
12 |
unmaintained software in the tree (they're getting tree cleaned.) Given |
13 |
that Grub 1 is both beta software (it got stuck at 0.97, never made it |
14 |
to 1.0) and unmaintained, stabilizing Grub 2 ASAP is the sanest thing |
15 |
you can do, since even though it's also beta software, it's at least |
16 |
maintained by upstream. |
