They will be allowed to ask questions about something not working with paludis on the forums, mailing lists, on irc etc without being off-topic. So far and with respect to other distributions (like e.g. Vida, Kororaa or whatever they were called) a rule of thumb was: A Gentoo system uses the official portage tree, was installed using the Gentoo installation guide using Gentoo stages, etc - and which was rather implicit - using portage as package manager. As far i understand it paludis differs from that in many ways. So before the package manager gets optional and we support something quite different we really should figure out what we consider a Gentoo installation.=20 cheers, Wernfried --=20 Wernfried Haas (amne) - amne at gentoo dot org Gentoo Forums: http://forums.gentoo.org IRC: #gentoo-forums on freenode - email: forum-mods at gentoo dot org --bg08WKrSYDhXBjb5 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEaiUPK/GNBBblp4ARAn5vAJ9qWLNfueYiISHu8wI4IwT6DS96HwCePQ3s xphV4k5Rozjp+P0NLCT42yc= =U/b6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --bg08WKrSYDhXBjb5-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
