1 So,
2
3 I was thinking about modifying the backend code for ximian-setup-tools
4 for gentoo. Right now, gentoo cannot be identified by a program like
5 other distros can, for example through /etc/redhat-release, which is
6 necessary for these kinds of programs (as it is for webmin, for
7 example). I was told that such a mechanism is to be added in the future.
8 I'd like to know how exactly that is going to be achieved.
