Yes, ebuild version. For me all that starts with E (in combination with |
| 8 |
Gentoo) is separated in my mind between E and the remaining part. Like: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
- ebuild == e-build |
| 11 |
- emerge == e-merge |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
And EVER automatically was E-VER for me, never had the idea to read it |
| 14 |
as ever. Does that count as being addicted to Gentoo? |
