Maybe there needs to be an IWANTSLOTS feature or something, because the same |

rationale for why I was against a slotted mysql would have other people |

against a slotted kde, or slotted perl (ouch, so close to home, even if its |
| 10 |
conceptually fictional) - I neither need nor desire having multiple copies of |
| 11 |
the application available on one box, when i am only ever going to connect to |
| 12 |
one running copy. |

Hmmmm...a feature flag that (where applicable) disabled retaining other slots |
| 15 |
might be nice come to think of it....<hijack thread accidently>....disabled |
| 16 |
for the packages you need multiples of (berkdb?) but optionally enabled for |
| 17 |
packages like WM's and relational DB's where you just might not want more |
| 18 |
copies...or to remember to go back and unmerge and track the stray files |

for....</end accidental hijack> |
