IIRC, /emul predates FHS acceptance. also, while they are "binary" |
| 20 |
packages, they arn't in the same catagory as binary-only packages. We |
| 21 |
distribute them to assist multilib and to overcome problems that portage |
| 22 |
wasn't really designed for. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
We're getting to the point where most emul stuff could be made obsolete. |
| 25 |
The amd64 team is having a meeting next week and I'll bring the point up. |
