Isn't every package other the the > kernel, gnu stuff, etc. an "add on"? in our case, what is not locally compiled through portage is considered an "add-on" that means things like JDK's, Opera, OpenOffice-bin, Netscape 4.x and other binary-only applications. emerge's go as "system" since the emerge command specifies that this should be part of your installation, and it is something we provide with our OS, not an "add-on" to it. fex. A user can bootstrap, then just "emerge kde" and have a fully functional (supposedly) system. I've cc'd the list because this is relevant to them, please do the same in the future. //Spider > -- > Collins Richey - Denver Area - WWTLRD? > gentoo(since 01/01/01) 2.4.18+(ext3) xfce-sylpheed-mozilla -- begin .signature This is a .signature virus!
