/var/cache/{ebuilds,distfiles,eclasses,profiles} |

Or we can just call it Portage. |
26 |
|
27 |
We call it the "Portage tree", just like we call it gentoo-x86 but |
28 |
that isn't what it only contains, in several places, both in official |
29 |
docs and unofficial docs, tweets, pins, notes, stickies.... |
30 |
|
31 |
/var/cache/portage is my vote. |
32 |
|
33 |
Further, Portage is the official package manager. So, it make more |
34 |
sense to say "Paludis is compatible with the Portage tree" rather than |
35 |
"Portage is compatible with the Paludis tree." Portage is the |
36 |
reference implementation. Whether or not there are other managers are |
37 |
out there is moot. |
