Second thing that I'd improve is a security one. I know that "emerge"
is a very cared package, but it is a script. Suppose that someone
commits portage with a emerge failure in its code (he forgot a comma
!!)... if someone updates portage won't be able to update it again
because it will fail ever and ever again... So I suggest to have a
backuped emerge script that we are sure that worked (like the last
emerge tool that was used), and if the new emerge tool is mistaken (so
that user doesn't need to know python) only has to run "regenemerge" for
example, and will have the latest emerge working tool.
I disagree with that as well. Changes should only happen in the keyworded
packages (ie. ~x86, ...). That's the testing area of Gentoo. If a package
breaks in testing: "Fine"! That's what's testing is for.
