That's what I did, and that's exactly the major part of what you cut out |
| 24 |
from the reply quotes. |
| 25 |
It being a blocker is exactly what I read out from the mails, without |
| 26 |
having found a bug number, which I perhaps lost in all the long thread. |
| 27 |
It being a _personal_ expectation was written with the notion that it |
| 28 |
would be as such in an ideal world, with the context of it being |
| 29 |
possibly blocked due to a USE flag in mind, and it was explicitly |
| 30 |
expressed as such. |
| 31 |
I do not see why I am getting such unconstructive replies to my majorly |
| 32 |
constructive e-mails. Should I cease writing e-mails to gentoo-dev, at |
| 33 |
the rare times I have something constructive to say? |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
Now someone that deals with wxGTK or poEdit feel free to put use the |
| 36 |
constructive things I said in the thread if it's a good suggestion, and |
| 37 |
I'll use my time on working on wxGTK instead and upgrading my ~x86 |
| 38 |
system that has GNOME-2.14 ;) |
| 39 |
Great work it being in ~x86 already, btw! |
