Re: [gentoo-dev] MySQL 4 still marked unstable?

[Thomas T. Veldhouse]

I would really like to see a separation of system packages from optional
packages.  The ~arch flags should only apply to system packages.  There
should be an option to easily install the latest reasonable non-system
packages.  Currently, trying to mix stable with ~ causes emerge -u world to
become a nightmare if you have many ~ packages installed.  Manually updating
the world file is a pain and unwieldy if you lucky enough to be maintaining
many servers.
