11 My problem always was, i felt a bit uncomfortable with gentoo changing
12 my OS X files. For example have used gnat for OS X as an external
13 package, not from gentoo, which changed my gcc 3.3 that came with OS X
14 and that demaged my gcc, it took very long to find out why some things
15 did not compile.
16
17 so i like the fink solution, to have an extra directory, which i can
18 simply remove if i don't like it anymore or that i can simply change my
19 PATH to have an origial OS X environment.

21 Some time ago there was a discussion about those things, which way
22 gentoo-osx should go, what to do and so. What about this discussion? Is
23 the extra directory for gentoo-osx definetly dead and will not be used?
24 Or are the changes to portage that would be neccessary to difficult?

26 Thanks,
