]]> Comment on What happened to Gentoo? by Andy http://www.lbtechservices.com/blog/2008/09/29/gentoo/comment-page-1/#comment-15731 Andy Thu, 09 Oct 2008 19:36:48 +0000 http://www.lbtechservices.com/blog/?p=565#comment-15731 I've had many of the same thoughts as Loren has had about Gentoo. I've been using Gentoo for a while now and early on it was the speed of the package availability that stuck me at gentoo, plus the ability to update to newer packages without waiting for the distribution to release a whole new release (since most linux distros don't do major upstream updates within a distro release). I've come to many of the same conclusions above that this is difficult to do as Gentoo and portage packages grows, and it's a fact of live that I've accepted and Gentoo is still my preferred Linux distro. I do find that the overlay push to be unfortunate though. The point of gentoo was the portage tree. Now to get newer things I'm expected to pull in random other trees of varying quality (the quality within portage itself is already varying, but I've found the overlays to be even more so) and many times, I've found major issues with the overlays and arch vs ~arch packages in the main tree. This type of thing turns me off from overlays in general big time. Don't take this as an attack against gentoo though, this is just some off the cuff musings of mine about what is currently my distro of choice, and what I still consider to be the best Linux distro out there. My Linux mantra has always been "All Linux distributions suck, you pick the one that sucks least for you, and make it good" :) In that sense, Gentoo sucks OOTB, but the very design of Gentoo makes it extremely easy for me to make it "good" for myself. It's just that it's taking more and more maintenance as the years go on to make Gentoo "good". I’ve had many of the same thoughts as Loren has had about Gentoo.

Congrats on the contract approval! My contracts have been pending since August 2, and I've completed all the steps for the paid contract. =/ I wonder what's going on. I wonder if the contract approval process starts when your first app is approved. My first app was approved on Sept 17. What was your experience? -S My first post got messed up.

As the number of packages grew the system got slow and there wasn't enough people to take care of it. There are now 50+ overlays, most people don't know about them. Someone decided that they would clean stuff out of portage which started breaking updates that hadn't been done in a while and ebuilds like virtualbox that have a fetch restriction and are to stupid to realize it is an update, stop an ebuild midway for human intervention sometimes. I still think it is the best, but I have a few suggestions....Bintoo: your hardware profile and useflags are identified with a guid, this is sent on sync, if your flags are already built into a binary, you get it else you build it and upload it. Eventually it becomes a distributed compile. automatic Fallback repos. I think it is internal fragmentation and some core people changes.
