This implies there should also be a separate category for packages |
| 15 |
that are suitable for Lunix only. In the ideal world, IMO, x11-libs/ |
| 16 |
qt should build on both platforms, behaving correctly whether it is |
| 17 |
on MacOS or Linux; it is inelegant to require users on different |
| 18 |
platforms to emerge different packages to get the same thing |
| 19 |
(although for development reasons it might be reasonable to have an |
| 20 |
x11-libs/qt-meta package that pulls in either linux-libs/qt or macos- |
| 21 |
libs-qt as required). |
