Very few, if any, other packages install all their files in one |
| 14 |
directory. Nor do they install the sheer number of files |

% qlist \=sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-5.10.61 | wc -l |

But the real benefit is that you have to run rm -fr anyway to remove the |

object files etc. you are running the same commands either way, it is |
| 21 |
just the order that makes a difference. |

For any other package, I just let portage do its job. |
