Re: [gentoo-user] Portage and sets

[AllenJB <gentoo-lists@allenjb.me.uk>]

Hi again,

One more note. I recommend you use a prefix for your own sets, to avoid 
conflicts with official or overlay sets. ie. I call my kde-3.5 set: 
ajb-kde-3.5

While portage almost certainly has a system for handling conflicting 
sets (at a guess, probably user > overlay > official tree, the same way 
everything else goes), this removes any ambiguity.
