Before these changes were introduced, the gentoo-sources and |
7 |
vanilla-sources were quite similar in the sense that genpatches used |
8 |
to contain |
9 |
patches already in Linus' tree. However, given that gentoo-sources |
10 |
will become heavily patched by external 3rd-party patches, it might |
11 |
makes more |
12 |
sense to recommend vanilla-sources to our users (handbook, etc). |

I certainly don't feel safe anymore running non-upstream code in |
14 |
production boxes. |
