greets ... |

today (at least in my timezone ;-) ) I saw gnome-3.6-related ebuilds |
| 4 |
coming up on my ~amd64 box ... |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
I ran a backup (yes, experience ...) and emerged stuff ... so far it |
| 7 |
runs OK. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
There are changes and new features and I am still exploring stuff. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
The general question: is it a bug or a feature? ;-) |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
for example Alt-leftclick doesn't allow me to move windows right now. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
bug? |

What I'd like to discuss: |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
how to start over for a given user? For example, I want to get rid of |
| 22 |
old stuff from gnome-1.x/2.x or so (I think of my ~-directory, not the |
| 23 |
overall system). Or even bigger, does it make sense to drop stuff from |
| 24 |
all those dot-directories in ~ from time to time (e.g. at bigger |
| 25 |
GUI-upgrades) and only keep some important ones? |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
For example I would keep core stuff like .gnupg .ssh .bashrc |
| 28 |
.thunderbird (in my case) ... but I am sure there is loads of stuff to |
| 29 |
get rid of. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Maybe most of it doesn't make a difference (hdd-space is cheap anyways) |
| 32 |
and isn't even read anymore by recent versions of software. But maybe |
| 33 |
some files/dirs should get dumped and forgotten. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
Do you gentoo-users have any opinions on this? |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Does it make any sense to re-create my main user(-dir)? |
| 38 |
