Why is Arfrever being treated so bad here? To me, it looks like you're the one who is difficult to work with. :\ Jakov Smolić wrote: > From what I've investigated, other major distributions don't apply > any similar patches which means that we are likely to stop carrying > most (or even all) of the current patches. What kind of silly groupthink is this? I expect Gentoo to champion choice.

Arfrever is active in the bug you linked, has provided explanations for the patches and prepared to restructure the patches so that they can be gated by local USE flags, has made several different concrete suggestions for possible implementations and requested feedback, but has received no reply in the bug and instead there's now this backstabbing discussion on this list. Really? //Peter
