It is a critical task, and as such, it needs to be done by an administrator, |
| 17 |
under supervision, and, thus, by hand. If I wanted any silly package |
| 18 |
admistration system messing with things like the default flags and compiler, |
| 19 |
I would better use any other distro. |

The problem is that a source based distro, relies deeply in the compiler and |
| 22 |
the libs, and those are tied to the profile in gentoo. So, no, an autoupdate |
| 23 |
for this will not be wellcome at all in my side. |
