Unfortunately in this case there is only one cat, he has only one skin |
| 9 |
and there is only one knife with which to skin him. Chris asked if |
| 10 |
paludis can build a release (meaning an official Gentoo release), which |
| 11 |
means following the Release Guidelines to the letter. That involves |
| 12 |
things that you clearly state that paludis either cannot or will not do. |
| 13 |
Your answer boils down to "Paludis can (or will be able to) build |
| 14 |
something that would work in a similar fashion to an official Gentoo |
| 15 |
release insofar as it has the ability to facilitate an end-user install. |
| 16 |
It does not now nor will it ever be able to create a release according |
| 17 |
to the Release Guidelines." In effect making your answer "No." |
