I talked with the other AMD64 leads about adding a paludis subprofile to |
| 21 |
default-linux/amd64. Blubb said he'd rather have a global profile, |
| 22 |
Kingtaco state to be neutral in regard to adding another amd64 |
| 23 |
subprofile. I'd rather have a global profile, too. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Summary: amd64 team can live with a paludis profile, we prefer to have a |
| 26 |
global profile, though. |

PS: |

As a sidenote to people who test or play with paludis and find packages |
| 31 |
that don't compile/install: Please don't file bugs with gentoo. Come to |
| 32 |
#paludis and discuss with us. If we tell you to do so, file bugs with |
| 33 |
paludis@×××××××.de. We are really interested to know which packages |
| 34 |
don't work. |
