Nah, as I just wrote on another sub-thread of this, this assumption is |

Imagine users to cross-compile kernels for other |
| 18 |
userlands/hardwares/whatever, like compile a gentoo-sources on a fast |

Two thoughts, out package manager does not handle reboots (and I like |
| 22 |
it), and kernel builds as well as installs/bootloader are a bit out of |
| 23 |
this scope. |
