It might be worth considering to distribute only the open source parts of OSX |
| 5 |
with Gentoo OSX. Then ebuilds for proprietary components could simply require |
| 6 |
an OSX install CD, assuming ebuilds have a way for getting distfiles from |
| 7 |
CD-ROM... The user probably wouldn't be able to install the OSX GUI within |
| 8 |
the chroot this way, but the manual doesn't include XFree in the chroot part, |
| 9 |
either, so this shouldn't make much of a difference... |
