That's right but keep in mind that nevertheless you need a stable |

And in general maintainer stabilization should be the last resort. The |
10 |
person who wrote the ebuild maybe doesn't notice that the ebuild is |
11 |
doing something wrong (doesn't honor CFLAGS, calls compiler directly, |
12 |
not working with /bin/sh not /bin/bash ...). |
