If you don't like the idea, better hope over to -dev and help come up |
| 9 |
with ideas. Actually, you may have to go hunt down the Fedora dev that |
| 10 |
came up with this brilliant idea. The Gentoo devs are just having to |
| 11 |
follow along since the Fedora dev isn't listening. Personally, I hope |
| 12 |
he runs into a real hair pulling issue that makes him regret this. Then |
| 13 |
again, he is using a binary distro which uses a init* anyway so he may |
| 14 |
not care either way. Should we wish for a nice rm command to get put |
| 15 |
into his init* thingy and erase his stuff? Evil ain't I? LOL |
