When installing Gentoo for various purposes (server, workstation, etc.) I find that I need to make extensive changes to the USE flags. Ufed is a great utility for this. It would be very helpful to have this utility on the LiveCD distribution CDROM. The work-around is to emerge ufed, but that brings in 30 other packages and takes a lot of time. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

I also would like to have ufed on the livecd and/or stages. My thought is that one would need it earliest before bootstrapping but after chroot. Especially for newbies (counting me to them though I already have set up some gentoo boxes) ufed is invaluable! BTW: Ufed is not on i686-1.4-20030911-cd1.iso so I am inclined to think the the fix for this bug is the note taken! For me, this is clearly not a fix.
Also it is not included in gentoo 2004.0 test stages. Last one checked was 20040204-x86.
Moving these so we can remove the "Install CD" component from "Gentoo Linux". I apologize to everyone for this spam, but according to the bugzilla developers, this is the only reasonable way to do this.
