Well, Thats because the ebuild system needs to be redone.. Thats for another 
topic on another day I would love to get involved with.. I know your just 
excited to hear that arn't you?

Sounds to me like we are having growing pains.. That also means there need to 
change. Gentoo, is a company now with users.. So your gonna have to change 
the way things work or its only going to get worse. Don't get mad at me 
because its slow, I didn't develop it, I can only help with the new way..

I wish you guys would stop fighting with me. All I am doing is trying to get 
gentoo leaner and meaner.. It needs it.. Your even telling me how repoman is 
horrible. That means, its time for a change. 

Thats how I see it.

Jeff
