Hi Gerolf, Gentoo has no long term support, by that I mean it's not a release distro that keeps "old" stuff and fixes it for a certain amount of time. Gentoo just moves on. It's not a technical problem, allthough this approach has its downsides as you already pointed out. But it is Gentoo's philosophy. Sebastian -- gentoo-security@gentoo.org mailing list
