atm, i see amd64-fbsd as a toy arch that is impacting more negatively than it |
| 16 |
is positively. i don't know of anyone using it for real work. it doesn't |
| 17 |
have the large KEYWORDS deployment yet to not make it obnoxious for simple |
| 18 |
things. |

this is why i've kept some arches which are not large in dev profiles -- so |
| 23 |
that when a new dep does come up, other devs aren't blocked. i've also |
| 24 |
communicated in the past that they should feel free to drop the keyword & file |
| 25 |
a bug later so that they aren't hung up on work they're focusing on. |

except amd64-fbsd is no longer just a dev profile like x86-fbsd which means |
| 40 |
those broken deps are messing people up. people who had nothing to do with |
| 41 |
the breakage in the first place. |
