Hi, |
12 |
read what Walter written till the very end ;) |

Problem is not what to *add* to the default profile, but rather that you |
14 |
have to *remove* tons of flags from it to have something compact. |

As he already mentioned usually USE="-*" is the way to start. |

There were plans once among the cluster herd's members to write |
18 |
minimalistic profile for hpc server/node and ha cluster that would |
19 |
inherit from a "barebone" server profile. We just never got to it as |

demand wasn't that high. Maybe it's time to revisit the problem. |
