Hmm, I always thought sys should contain everything that's required for |
17 |
building itself and everything that's |
18 |
required for a minimum runtime system. |
19 |
dev-lang/python includes tcl-tk support, sys-devel/python not otherwise we |
20 |
must must xfree/tcl-tk to sys |
21 |
which is a bad idea. |
22 |
So dev-langy/python can not go away. |
23 |
But in sys we only need spython with a basic set of libs. Libs must be |
24 |
placed in /lib because spython is used |
25 |
by env-update which is called during boot and so it must work without /usr |
26 |
mounted. |
