   yep its still hard for me to make ebuild for mbse since i dont know what   
   exceptions mbse wants   
      
   in gentoo there was f-prot, bitdefender in /opt both are now removed and only   
   aw left in gentoo now is clamav

   i like to see a mbse setup running as node in a whole setup before i try make   
   a ebuild for this in gentoo, and i would not install if its not possible from   
   portage, well this is properly just me :)

   i should dig more into this, just need to have another linux box i can test it   
   on, and then make the ebuild from it, currently one can get all my ebuilds in   
   2 ways:   
      
   1:    
   layman -a fidonet   
   emerge -a    
      
   2:   
   via rsync on home.junc.org::fidonet   
      
      
   this is native ebuilds for what i do   
      
      
    Regards Benny   
      
   ... there can only be one way of life, and it works :)
