Where 'Gentoo applications' == the portage UI itself ? Or are you |
| 29 |
talking about actually wrapping arbitrary packages in a GUI? |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
The former, should definitely wait until portage 3 (saviour) is here, |
| 32 |
as that will be the first portage to actually have an API. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
The latter, is a completely crazy idea, but if you think you can pull |
| 35 |
it off, more power to ya ;) |
