Gentoo dev team, |

First let me say that Gentoo rules. It has become my new distro of |
| 4 |
choice. Thank you. |

Ok, my issue is with dependency/conflict resolution with emerge. This |
| 7 |
morning I updated my Gentoo box, with the new stuff in portage. One |
| 8 |
of those packages was Mozilla 0.9.8. I use Galeon as my web browser |
| 9 |
which, as you know, depends on Mozilla. The Galeon in Portage is |
| 10 |
version 1.0.2, which depends on Mozilla 0.9.7. After this update |
| 11 |
Galeon will not run. Not a big deal for me and I am not asking for a |
| 12 |
solution, but it seems to me that emerge should have detected that |
| 13 |
dependency and given a warning, similar to the way rpm does. Is this |
| 14 |
functionality plan for Gentoo 1.0? |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Also, I would like to contribute to Gentoo's development. I have many |
| 17 |
skills which I believe would be beneficial to the project. Please let |
| 18 |
me know if your interested in more developers/maintainers, and if so, |
| 19 |
how I can help. |

Thanks again, |
