29 It has been that way here for a pretty long while and no problems that I
30 know of. According to the man page, you should have sandbox in there as
31 well. I think Alan was showing what could be added but not all the
32 options that are available and should be there. Then again, Alan knows
33 Gentoo pretty well and may know that he doesn't need sandbox.

35 Just thought I would share a example that is in use and appears to work.
