17 That is assuming clients do not have FEATURES="buildpkg". I have that
18 set just in case I merge some package directly on a system. I have the
19 binary ready for others. I am trying out the env route now, but may
20 need some changes there.

22 Most are made on the binhost, but not all. Also I am not necessarily
23 using a binhost per se. I have portage on shared NFS. I also rsync some
24 binaries between NFS servers.
