Subject: [gentoo-dev] New virtuals: virtual/findutils virtual/admin-users virtual/admin-processes

Okay three more virtuals that I think should be implemented.

The first would be for generic findutils, that is find and xargs commands; it 
would be satisfied by sys-apps/findutils or one of the BSD -ubin packages. 
This will solve problems of packages depending on sys-apps/findutils and then 
using a generic "find" instead of gfind on non-GNU userland.

The second would be an alias for shadow or the -usbin packages, this way one 
can actually depend on the right utilities when using enewuser for instance.

The third would be an alias for psmisc+procps or the -ubin packages, providing 
things like ps, kill and killall.

If nobody has problems with them (considering I'll fix the dependencies when i 
get around keywording things, although everybody is welcome to fix their 
packages right after adding the virtuals if they want ;) ), I'll commit them 
Tuesday night or Wednesday afternoon (depends when I find time for them, 
actually, and how much I can go on without having the need of these 
virtuals).

Thanks,
