It's much less rigid is the point I guess. catalyst has some behavior set by python code in /usr/lib and if you change that a lot then
metro might be a lot better I guess.

I think a dis= tro-world based build tool shouldn't be "changed a lot" becau= se it must at start simplify everything the base distro can do.
Talking = about Gentoo, as we can do almost everything, the build tool should just ma= ke "doing everything" easier.
Moreover, what about taking a tool dedicated to another distro (strongly re= lated in this case, I bet) to work with our distro which already have a too= l ?!
