Oh; and one more thing - please don't confuse herds with categories. |
| 11 |
herds are defined by metadata, not the package location in the portage |
| 12 |
tree. Moving stuff in herds is pretty painless, provided all the |
| 13 |
relevant maintainers agree - indeed, a package can belong to more than |
| 14 |
one herd. However changing a package's category is much more |
| 15 |
disruptive and should be avoided. |
