I don't. I just don't want messages about things being installed for |

which there is no atom, or whatever the message is. |

Myth quits then the WAF==0.0 and I'm in deep stuff!) |

Yes, and I hope to get it all upgraded when my family goes away for a |
| 17 |
couple of weeks in July. Until then I just don't like being pushed |

More importantly (to me) is that when looking at a distro like this |
| 21 |
what are the issues with leaving an older revision in portage? I |
| 22 |
don't see what the maintainance issues are. It's been a working ebuild |
| 23 |
for a long time. Why remove it. Just leave it there. I suppose files |
| 24 |
could move and then the ebuild would need an update but other than |
| 25 |
that how much work is being saved for one person vs. a decision by |
| 26 |
that one person to force lots of people to upgrade? (All |
| 27 |
rhetorical....) |
