Of course, "maintainer of package X which is a part of Gentoo". Cause we |
| 10 |
maintain packages FOR a distribution. So we should cooperative if we |
| 11 |
want to reach this goal. |

If developer(or user, it is not the point in this case) clearly explains |
| 23 |
why this change is needed and provives good examples, where absence of |
| 24 |
this change will be bad for our users(we work for users, first of all), |
| 25 |
i see no problem in this change. |

Of course, we should mention here 'dirty hack->workaround->proper |
| 28 |
solution' stream, but i will skip it for now. |
