So what happens if a flaw is discovered in KDE 3.5.5 that allows root
access?
In your world you allow mips users to trivially install now flawed and
insecure software, instead of having to add
to /etc/portage/package.keywords or package.unmask
Yes, this breaks their tree, but it's fixable from the users end as we
can rest in the knowledge that mips users have acknowledged the security
flaw by adding the package to the above mentioned files.
Thanks
