While talking installer, heres a thought: |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Currently you can pick a few profiles when you install gentoo. How about |
| 4 |
installing profiles via emerge? |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
ex. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
# emerge sys-profiles/small-tightly-packed-email-server |
| 9 |
# emerge profile |
| 10 |
(renaming the system target to profile) |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
And for a somewhat diffrent topic: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
why was the stable-unstable-masked scheme done the way it was? Wouldnt it be |
| 15 |
easier to fork the ebuildtree into seperate trees? |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
ex. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
# emerge stable/sys-apps/baselayout |
| 20 |
# emerge all/x11-wm/ion-devel |
| 21 |
# emerge local/x11-wm/testpackage |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
This would allow everyone and his dog to have his own seperate tree of what |
| 24 |
he thinks is stable/suitable. |
