This is the Gentoo Way=E2=84=A2. Having a working software is not a goal. Gentoo focuses on the best bleeding edge experience and therefore highly relies on software packages that are under active development and require active maintenance. The packages in early stages of development are especially interesting since they can supply users and developers with variety of interesting bugs and unpredictable issues. --=20 Best regards, Micha=C5=82 G=C3=B3rny --Sig_/22=qmIS5iw7vCYQXdg358m8 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQKTBAEBCgB9FiEEbbsHzE8NrQbqCv5BsHoa6u+0Rk4FAlhrhWZfFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldDZE QkIwN0NDNEYwREFEMDZFQTBBRkU0MUIwN0ExQUVBRUZCNDQ2NEUACgkQsHoa6u+0 Rk6j5hAAn/1xAeYCsXPSb1sQZj/0Bj0YM77CiPUeeSwHKQ6uXqEXFCA5vZJabSsG CFfLHpv0AJnak7JG42aGhWaL3w1ee3dyesqZo8x685+ycCh82E/uAUurcfkdSmsT mrRFT+mwQmclz4TKXz2nge9ZaHOj8ZQ4G6TvBaaJGBurMGSS152yDQaYkDcGFa2u EGtKbkfgYW2hCIm22Gop17i3VZe8zuWA6c0kyQmocf0f1ShoKRe1zTCUQGrQxc7s PBgR924ayCCa+dvCvq+cXdUcGf8CnnptDPFuMmj+uCGPMYN6sEke28TK/AyDuA1E pTErpaDY0hiiCWmfAqZDqNVIGMIw67kzIpLaasQnvTBrpZhFLtIQQegli+4SjqjQ AsT3JJF27Qs/eJFmuXnIF34t2/DhGdVxT4LoCZgca4jwc2u7wO5LaYCac0DrUrju JZmpixMzTzkWodJWshHMJLyDPxNBkiMBjhDoQM0PyI1q6ftLfzL/FNVB55XOi/+R n2RWbiJVFCj3097t0dbkdnHAMOxAlIMVwlnoE+qMgvKukVWljYLGvgfJvtgiGmyw MIFymGVZIn3AxgcqbI5x8qUvnSj7SMvs+kEYY1IYSLY6lB+gVl0PBU5j9dM1QiWC GtAnKH+MaeP4KoKOCN6jOQSILioSm2OanM9rZ5vNGShVgKgm1fQ= =IkmT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/22=qmIS5iw7vCYQXdg358m8--
