IMHO, we shouldn't even have desktop/server subprofiles to begin with. I've always considered Gentoo to be an "opt-in" distro where after a=20 successful install, you end up with a bash prompt and a _means_ of=20 installing new packages. Finding out what USE flags mean and do is part of the Gentoo experience.=20 If we were doing spin-off distros like Ubuntu and Fedora do, then=20 subprofiles would be fine, but we're not. So with my X hat on, I won't be adding any "X" subprofile. And with my (former?) Gnome hat on, I vote against any "gnome" subprofile= . Cheers, R=E9mi
