Yes. but people like me would have a problem with that. So I would hope there |
12 |
will be more of a generic routine on DB calls.. I don't care if I download a |
13 |
sqlite db, but I don't want 4 copies either.. I would want a central db, |
14 |
mysql such as, and have one copy of the portage db, and another table of |
15 |
installed packages.. The table could be smart enough to know the machine |
16 |
name, or separate tables wouldn't bother me much either. |

Unless, I heard a rumor there was going to be more of a client/server version, |
19 |
so maybe it can be solved that way? |

I only keep one copy of /usr/portage now due to disk space. I refuse to tie |
22 |
up that much disk space when I can centralize it. |
