Yes. but people like me would have a problem with that. So I would hope the= re=20 will be more of a generic routine on DB calls.. I don't care if I download = a=20 sqlite db, but I don't want 4 copies either.. I would want a central db,=20 mysql such as, and have one copy of the portage db, and another table of=20 installed packages.. The table could be smart enough to know the machine=20 name, or separate tables wouldn't bother me much either. Unless, I heard a rumor there was going to be more of a client/server versi= on,=20 so maybe it can be solved that way? I only keep one copy of /usr/portage now due to disk space. I refuse to ti= e=20 up that much disk space when I can centralize it. =2D --=20 Speak softly and carry a cellular phone. =2D----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/04mXld4MRA3gEwYRAnvQAKDpXn7Oo7Gy8hSAKt125mOzTYXyzQCfS1Vu Z+HDFOD1Gj3LzuDR0tp5djQ=3D =3DpAur =2D----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- gentoo-portage-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
