I second this...Presently, I cannot (easily) merge libvirt because it depends upon netcat6...which I've had to mask because I require a different version of netcat. eselect sure would fit the bill here... In my opinion nc should *ALWAYS* be gnu netcat as that is what scripts should be expecting. I would be interested in potentially completely removing the symlink though, I'm not thrilled with the way things are now either but I think an eselect would do more harm than good as these are NOT compatible with each other. Thoughts? This isn't going to work as you intended it, I guess. |
