i don't know of that option being supported. i currently use the 0.24.6 from
august and that don't seem to list that feature. what does that feature in
portage?!
i'm using paludis for a speed reason. portage is really really slow and it
makes you die before determining deps. it's awful in that terms. i foud out
paludis which has a great speed and that seems to give a lot of debug infos
and that has a more modular approach when compared to portage. the last
useful thing is that i with portage i used to get some times compilation
errors that would go away when resuming; this thing don't happen almost
anytime with paludis. the only thing is that you'll have to install the
hooks or you risk doing some damage to the world db by deleting something
like some baselayout files when updating baselayout. that was some file
linking problem fixed when installing the collision protect hook.
but the function that i think is the best of paludis is the repositories:
you can administrate your layouts in a very good way and have a different
configuration for the various repos packages.
