I think most installs have the system set included in world for now but |
| 55 |
that may change in the future. As I have posted on -dev, I see the |
| 56 |
serious need for the sets but I wish to continue using the plain world |
| 57 |
and it update all the packages that need updating. I think the plain |
| 58 |
world will be around for a while. There were others that agreed with |
| 59 |
that thought. As I pointed out, if it has a @ in front, you are in the |
| 60 |
sets section. If not, then it is the old way. |
