If we were to take this example to its extreme; then we would have to |
| 12 |
create an inventory of which INSTALL_MASK entries are good and bad for |
| 13 |
each ebuild, in which we cover all the files installed by that ebuild. |

People that use INSTALL_MASK should be very well aware of what they are |
| 16 |
doing, as with any other variable or command you run you need to be |
| 17 |
very aware of what it does; that you mask installation of /lib/udev/ |
| 18 |
and /usr/lib/systemd/ therefore would be based on their knowledge of |
| 19 |
what is in these directories, and not on our hand holding thereof. |

Reminds me about my INSTALL_MASK on configure* and Makefile*; by doing |
| 22 |
so, I missed out on packages installing these for use in rev dep builds. |
