thanks for clarifying. This is getting close to naysaying, but I'd
prefer more packages, easier to upgrade from fedora N to N+1, than
integration. My personal preference.
Going back to expediency, ebuild ease of creation versus rpm ease of
creation: e-builds are easier due to the looser integration? What are
other factors, please?
