Description DEMAINE Benoît-Pierre, aka DoubleHP 2007-02-10 02:50:34 UTC
I emerged moo recently, and something chocked me; then, I came back to Debian to see what. Fact is, in "moo", the eyes are on the right side of the cow, when in actual emerge moo, the head is on the left side, what is "somehow a nonsense".

Examples:

****************************************************** Gentoo:

root@moon_gen:/# emerge moo

 _______________________
< Have you mooed today? >
 -----------------------
        \   ^__^
         \  (oo)\_______
            (__)\       )\/\
                ||----w |
                ||     ||


Calculating dependencies \
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "moo".

root@moon_gen:/#

***************************************************************** Debian

root@moon_gen:~# chroot  /mnt/debian/ /bin/bash
moon_gen:/# apt-get moo
         (__)
         (oo)
   /------\/
  / |    ||
 *  /\---/\
    ~~   ~~
...."Have you mooed today?"...
moon_gen:/#

**********************************************************************

So, I ask to put the cow with head on the right side, as "moo" suggests" !

Comment 2 DEMAINE Benoît-Pierre, aka DoubleHP 2007-02-10 02:58:21 UTC
I was not meaning any thing about Debian; I was FIRST saying that the cow is in the wrong way: counter intuitive with the name of the function !
