1 Hi,
2
3 I just stumbled across this post in the forums:
4 http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=67849

6 That remembered me that there are some portage related tool in the
7 portage tree scattered in serveral categories (mostly in app-admin). A
8 quickly assembled list of packages that are only usable with portage:
9
10 app-admin/envtest
11 app-admin/genlop
12 app-admin/generate-use
13 app-admin/gentoolkit
14 app-admin/gentoo-stats
15 app-admin/kportage
16 app-admin/mirrorselect
17 app-admin/portagemaster
18 app-admin/rmerge2
19 app-admin/splat
20 app-admin/ufed
21 dev-util/ebuilder
22 dev-util/lintool
23 sys-apps/epm
24
25 Some packages where I'm not sure if they fit the new category:
26
27 app-admin/gentoo-rsync-mirror
28 sys-apps/deltup
29 sys-apps/portage (well, it fits in the category, but unsure if it should
30 be moved)
31
32 And there are more tools in bugzilla waiting to get into the tree.
33 A new category might benefit new users as all portage related tools are
34 kept in one place.
