the official stance on this will be that gentoo-dev-sources will move into gentoo-sources once the config-kernel pinning code has been tested and working. the config-kernel pinning will mean we can condense all versions of the kernel into a single package which are within the same patchset. ie: gentoo-sources will have 2.4 and 2.6 versions if you choose to not use 2.6, then you can pin kernel sources to 2.4 a rough guestimate of this work going into portage is a month or so. there has been a lot of delays recently in kernel-land. |
