But users can already do all sorts of stupid things and blame gentoo. In |
| 19 |
fact, they already do. Just look at bugzilla or ask jakub. |

As long as we continue to enforce the posting of emerge --info on bugs |
| 22 |
this shouldn't be a problem. Any bug submitted with a user-screwed-it-up |
| 23 |
profile can just be closed with a WONTFIX and a short explanation of |
| 24 |
what they did wrong. Just like we do it now for a million other things. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Let's not hold anyones hand, let them make their mistakes and learn from |
| 27 |
them. That philosophy is at the heart of Gentoo and the main reason I |
| 28 |
use it. |
