The existence of use.stable.mask and the end-user experience however have no one-on-one mapping (or should not have it); so, currently from the user perspective it is easy to put the blame on use.stable.mask without entirely being experienced with it from a developer perspective. The blame being put there might be a consequence of something being more problematic towards the interface with the user; some form of more proper feature, notification or communication missing. I think that we should rather look at what kind of options we have to improve things there, because I really don't see a change to the existence or functionality of use.stable.mask coming out of this thread. -- With kind regards, Tom Wijsman (TomWij) Gentoo Developer E-mail address : tom...@gentoo.org GPG Public Key : 6D34E57D GPG Fingerprint : C165 AF18 AB4C 400B C3D2 ABF0 95B2 1FCD 6D34 E57D
