38=head3 I use Gentoo, and I have a problem...
39
40There are three big problems with Gentoo Linux: first of all, most if not
41all Gentoo systems are completely broken (missing or mismatched header
42files, broken compiler etc. are just the tip of the iceberg); secondly,
43the Gentoo maintainer thinks it is a good idea to add broken patches to
44the code; and lastly, it should be called Gentoo GNU/Linux.
45
46For these reasons, it is impossible to support rxvt-unicode on
47Gentoo. Problems appearing on Gentoo systems will usually simply be
48ignored unless they can be reproduced on non-Gentoo systems.
