Line 54:
Gentoo's package repositories provide a large collection of software. Each package contains details of any [[Coupling (computer programming)|dependencies]], so only the minimum set of packages need to be installed. Optional features of individual packages, such as whether they require [[Lightweight Directory Access Protocol|LDAP]] or [[Qt (software)|Qt]] support, can be selected by the user and any resulting package requirements are automatically included in the set of dependencies.<ref name="Negus2008"/>{{rp|386}}
 
Gentoo itself does not have a default [[look and feel]], hence installed packages usually appear as their authors intended.<ref name="Negus2008"/>{{rp|387}}
