    Gentoo Linux or for that matter all source derived distributions cost a lot of time waiting for a compile and a lot of energy hours of CPU usage for compilation.

    This will increase the greenhouse effect and melt the icecaps. Then the only gentoo surviving will be those in zoos and those on harddisks.

    Yeah, like KDE3 and Xfree 4.2. No, wait...

    It's been over 2 months since KDE3 was released. How about having it FINALLY in Debian as well?

      The exact error message is "Calculating dependencies !!! Couldn't find match for love; aborting."

      Interpret that as you will. Sounds violent and possible pedophiliac to me... ;-)
