I suspect that they do what they do because they're overworked and
underpaid -- exactly like all the rest of us :)
I suspect also that the problem with portage has already

Hello, Gentoo.
When I read a blog in Firefox 31.6.0, there are often You Tube film clips
embedded in it. When I attempt to view these, I am getting, more and
more frequently, the error message (from You Tube):
"Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats

The [m] means that you masked newer versions of xorg-server locally.
If you remove that local mask, the blockers should be gone.

No. It seems, nouvau is lost without support
Hi,
installation notes for spamassassin say you need to do the rule updates
yourself by running 'sa-update'.
Now I'd do that with a crontab entry, and I don't want to add it to
root's crontab. As what user should I run it, and where do I put the
crontab entry for it?
