That's not a terrible stance to take, until you have a package that contains all the flags except for say Tibet. Plus you then have to try and keep a running list of "unsafe" flags, and make sure the package set is kept up to date with those unsafe removals. In my experience, such efforts fail. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
