First, thanks for providing such a solution. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Now, let me bring up the subject of binpkgs. Largely ignored is this: |
| 23 |
http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/default-prefix/ - it is historically |
| 24 |
"tough" to relocate our prefix binaries, so (IIRC), the binaries that |
| 25 |
grobian put up there have a really long path that gets condensed with |
| 26 |
chpthtool (paths can only be shrunk, not grown). This is largely preventing |
| 27 |
me from providing binaries for the 6+ prefix arches that I have simply |
| 28 |
because I don't have time to maintain my 'production' prefixes in my /home |
| 29 |
NFS *and* a super long pathed prefix. Alternatively, I was debating about |
| 30 |
making a standard "/opt/gentoo" prefix installation to provide something. |
| 31 |
Again, the same boat regarding maintaining multiple prefixes. Although, |
| 32 |
that "/opt/gentoo" prefix is a very similar approach to any such stage3 |
| 33 |
solution like this. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
Any brainstorming thoughts? (Excuse the any ignorance on my part with |
| 36 |
regards to binpkgs, I'm still a newb in that area :P ) |
