Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archives-Salt: ebb2b61f-d323-4ca0-ae2a-fc646d0a83d1 X-Archives-Hash: 734755854771be3eb9e8c4da55489b34 I.E.: can an ebuild instruct that one of its deployables under /etc shall be "mercilessly auto-update"d? Using /etc/make.conf/CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK for a single file seems a bit unnatural to me: a general-purpose file specifying a file o/w unknown and unrelated to it. Amit
