If not, it sounds like an issue for elog. If yes, the "should update" part may need some stronger language like "you must update". cheers, Wernfried --=20 Wernfried Haas (amne) - amne (at) gentoo.org http://forums.gentoo.org || http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/proctors/ forum-mods (at) gentoo.org || proctors (at) gentoo.org #gentoo-forums || #gentoo-proctors (freenode) --/04w6evG8XlLl3ft Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGPEkWK/GNBBblp4ARAqQTAJ0cpmWEAqYPL1vfDYKPzT6Ia1MS+wCbBFKX tDbmYWRlg85oYGCKyJtlstU= =AMaw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --/04w6evG8XlLl3ft-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
