That bug is complaining that xterm is installed, and requests that it |
| 10 |
not be necessary. I don't see how this leads to virtual/term, |
| 11 |
though. After all, they didn't request Gentoo to make sure there is |
| 12 |
a terminal installed. |

How about making a local USE "xterm" for xorg-x11, then adding it to |
| 15 |
the default list? Then such users can USE=-xterm and they'll be all |
| 16 |
set. |
