No, they are not. I said, that it is unreasonable to expect, that |
13 |
emerge should offer a version other than 0.8 of dir2ogg, as that's |
14 |
the latest stable. Or rather, I asked maxim why he thinks, that |
15 |
a version, other than the latest stable (ie. 0.8), should be |
16 |
offered. |

I did. If you try to interprete it somehow and you get it wrong, |
21 |
than I'm terribly sorry for that, but that's just not my problem. |

My point is, that emerge offers, by default, to install the latest |
27 |
stable version. I wanted to make maxim think about why he expects |
28 |
a different version. |

I didn't say so, did I? |
