I _really_ vote for #3 in this case. It's nothing wrong to give an error, |
| 14 |
afterall, we have separate namespaces, why not take advantage of that? |
| 15 |
I think that the 'emerge foo' instead of 'emerge category/foo' is just |
| 16 |
pure lazyness and nothing we should hangon to. No, let's print a list with |
| 17 |
the avaible options instead. |
