I thought Gentoo was supposed to be bleeding edge when it came to all |

Why would something like E17, (or any package,) still need to be applied |
| 5 |
through an overlay after all this time instead of just being in portage? |

I thought building from scratch was to be the way to put a package |
| 7 |
together based on what you want, and what is available on your sytem. |
| 8 |
I understand that some basic needs are required to build a package, but |
| 9 |
again, I figured working from source would make such things so much more |
| 10 |
flexible. |

I am not trying to start any type of nasty discussion, it is just a |
| 13 |
nagging question I have wondered about. |
