hmm so from that thread of 11years ago (BTW great memory Hu);

Quote:
debian seems to install ip in /bin and installing a symlink from /sbin/ip to /bin/ip (...)


our iproute2 package does not provide such symlink; I guess debian still does.

yeah nordvpn is their own program they give option to use openvpn technology or nordlynx I think...

it is security software so I doubt they would allow for any modifications to their binary. ill try to check that.

Ill pursue that with them and see what they have to say about that. for now ill add the use flag to ebuild in the overlay.

Thanks for your help.

or better idea - I could create a sbin symlink ebuild - that its sole responsibility would be to create /sbin/ip symlink
that could depend on iproute2

and then make nordvpn depend on that...

that sound cleaner to me
