1 Hi!
2
3 I'm porting linux to an embedded arm system. I'm using scratchbox to
4 build applications, since it makes "porting" much easier (I just have to
5 use the normal ./configure && make && make install mainly). However now
6 I have about 30-40 packages built... and it's getting to be a real mass.
7
8 I use gentoo on my desktop pc, and I like how portage works, so I try to
9 use portage instead. But to minimize problems I'm thinking about using
10 it inside scratchbox. Anybody has done that? Any docs about it?
11
12 And one more question: I was thinking that I build the apps using
13 portage, however to create actually the rootfs and maintaining the
14 packages I would use a binary package manager. Is there a script to make
15 binary packages from all of the installed packages? And maybe a "light"
16 versions of portage which install binary packages only (which we could
17 deploy on the target)?
18
19 Thanks in advance!
