40 Hi,
41 Previously when i went to baselayout-1.11.12-rX, on startup received a
42 warning about missing "serial" something.
43 So just to be on the safe side re-emerged "setserial" and forgot about
44 this warning. It's: "sys-apps/setserial".
45 Also think that i don't need serial, but will check this later (when
46 have enough time ;).
