That would address some of the immediate concerns, but not any longer |
| 10 |
term issues -- the default provider in all profiles would still be |
| 11 |
portage, which requires nasty hackery at system install time, for a |
| 12 |
start. I'd view changing the system dep to the virtual as a good thing |
| 13 |
in itself, but not a substitute for a profile in the tree. |
