Here's a little secret: |

|
13 |
The only code differences between portage 2.1 and 2.2 appear to be one |
14 |
file managing features, so 2.1 just has preserved-rebuild and some of |
15 |
the set support disabled. But if you trust 2.1 enough to use it you also |
16 |
shouldn't have a problem with 2.2. |

There's still a few silly bugs with preserved-rebuild (corner cases like |
19 |
downgrades and stupid build systems), but I've not had any problematic |
20 |
behaviour in quite a long time ... |
