| 1 | Are .keep files necessary in a live filesystem? AFAIK they're only there |
| 2 | to keep portage from removing a directory from emerge-time image. Would it be |
| 3 | possible to just remove them from live filesystem after package files are |
| 4 | merged to / ? |
| 5 | |
| 6 | Or do .keep files serve another purpose, not obvious to me? |
