I failed to see why the "Cache sync" idea is too ambitious. It's not |
2 |
only about space but also speed. It still takes forever to sync and |
3 |
search packages, and really one does not need all the cruft from the |
4 |
portage tree. Besides I wonder how many Gentoo users have their |
5 |
portage directory on squashfs, and users with space limits usually |
6 |
have other limits. I bet a cache sync would actually be much more |
7 |
welcome than a database for file collisions. Students and mentors, do |
8 |
consider! |

Also please don't remove the ideas on the wiki. Even if one dev |
11 |
doesn't think it's a good idea does not mean someone else won't. The |
12 |
fact it was the first idea a student picked meant it's not so bad, |
13 |
even if it could be improved. |
