Thanks. I had known such a thing was possible but didn't realize there |
17 |
was a patch already available and (apparently) in active discussion and |
18 |
merge consideration. That's very cool and I'm certainly looking forward |
19 |
to it. =:^) |

It shouldn't have surprised me, tho. Portage is very flexible in regard |
22 |
to what a bit of hacking can make it do, and there's a lot of folks |
23 |
actively involved in bending it to their will for all sorts of unusual |
24 |
and even unique situations. So that a patch exists to bend it in this |
25 |
particular direction really shouldn't be surprising at all. But that |
26 |
it's being considered right now for mainline inclusion is nice. =:^) |
