No, you are stilling misunderstanding. The news item goes to great |
| 29 |
lengths to explain that there is a new way and it is different from the |
| 30 |
old way. |

Jarry mentioned an EMPTY file, not an absent file. The ebuild does not |
| 33 |
install an empty file, so it is not the default. |

All the questions you have raised are clearly explained in the news |
| 36 |
item. Please read it and study it, it really is complete. You appear to |
| 37 |
be confusing yourself by adding things that are not there. |
