Just an idea: |
| 12 |
portage could keep origital config files in a seperate directory structure |
| 13 |
(somewhere in /var), when i install a new version of config file, it |
| 14 |
generates a patch(agains old original config) and ask me, would i like to |
| 15 |
apply that patch to existing config in /etc.. |
