Fair enough, except that I maintain make.profile manually using ln. Same
with /usr/src/linux. And I've been doing that since my first install
and have never needed to look for a front end tool that can replace one
simple command with one simple command.
In fact, I didn't even know about this feature of eselect till 5 minutes
ago. So now there are two useful and important things that were not
communicated to users.
