As we all know the /usr/portage/ dir gets wiped of custom files on every sync. It seems kinda silly that there is a package.provided solution but it gets wiped every time, so is there any other way to accomplish the same thing on a more permanent term that I am not aware of? The portage man page does not suggest anything else.
