Re: [gentoo-user] What annoys you?

["Norman Rieß" <norman@smash-net.org>]

I am annoyed by a little more generous thing lately, which i am afraid
isn't fixable by a summer of code. But you wanted to know what annoys
me, so here it is.

There was a lib update, that broke sancho a while ago. A new version of
sancho fixed this. But i had to use this new version from the developers
site, because even ~arch package was several versions lower.
Some weeks ago the oscar protocol or something was changed and pidgin
was not able to login to icq. New version fixed this instantly, but it
took a while till this version hit ~arch. Again i had to install a
program outside of portage.
Gnome 2.26 was released and 2.24 hit portage around that time.
I just built me an openbox desktop today. Google and Openbox Hompage
show quite a few docks which can be used. None of them is in portage or
it is hardmasked. There where two docks available, one segfaulted! I
found a great taskbar named tint2, not in portage. I compiled it and it
works perfectly.

This is what annoys me most lately. And yes, i am planning on reading
into ebuild stuff and trying to contribute.
