coalms,

The only public description I know of appeared in The Gentoo Weekly Newsletter a long time ago.
So long ago, it may have been the Monthly Newsletter.

I don't have any contact details.

Essenially, the orgs I know of do the same thing as described in the newsletter.
Build and test in a ...

coalms,

I need to do a little testing but I think that's what the emerge -k and buildpkg-multi-instance takes care of.
The output is the binhost. Not the chroot itself, which can be in a mess.
The next build will do whatever it needs to do.

The -k uses existing binaries, so you don't build the ...

coalms,

Let me throw a rock in the pool. It's not a complete solution, at least, I don't think it is.
Suppose, on the build host, /etc/portage and /var/lib/portage/world are symbolic links.
Further the are links to /etc/portage_systemN and /var/lib/portage/world_systemN where N goes from 1..sysy ...

I wonder whether you could approach this from a slightly different direction. Please see my post here: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1169109.html , and the subsequent thread. Maybe you can use this approach to define your system specifications?

Unfortunately not, I am using a semi-custom ...

I'm kind of hesitant to reply, because I am not sure why you are working this way, so my reply is not all that helpful to you yet. I have never done something like this, and to be honest don't understand why you would!
Perhaps, if you will humour me, I could ask you some questions to establish why ...

:lol: I am using gentoo as a package manager for multiple systems
If I the system allows it without bugs I use a --root on the remote system and --sysroot on a local one otherwise both pointing at the remote.
My problem is config-root, i use it to change the remote system's portage Dir location ...

COMMON_FLAGS="${COMMON_FLAGS/-fPIE -pie -Wl,-z,relro,-z,now}"
CFLAGS="${COMMON_FLAGS}"

A few issues with this:

* Braces, '{' and '}', delimit the start and end of variable names. (In shell, they're usually not required , but it's good practice to use them in order to ...

Hey, you misunderstand a few things, I will reiterate

As you would expect, I do have a package.env file being


dev-java/openjdk stat64_musl
sys-libs/libselinux stat64_musl
x11-libs/pango fnopie
media-libs/dav1d fnopie


The COMMON_FLAGS I am trying to remove for selective packages are "-fPIE ...

I have quite the extended list of COMMON_FLAGS, naturally not following the norm tends to break things
I have found the solution to the following problem

[...] dunno where to look for the source either, [...]
emerge --fetchonly package-name will download the source archive in your DISTDIR directory (usually /var/cache/distfiles ).

so source is being kept in /var/cache/distfiles, brilliant, I was hoping for the simplicity of it being just ...

Getting a few replies back I would like to add a few things from my perspective as I made this post

Adding the fact that this workaround will stop working in future versions didn't cross my mind as I added the sources and was expecting people to read them, you can see why I didn't edit the wiki ...

I was one of the ones scouring bugzilla for the solution being unable to emerge a few packages with the stat64/lstat64 error, figured after a while that it was probably a musl error rather then gcc error so I scoured and got some sources

coalms,

We were all new to Gentoo once. Just when you get that hang of it, it changes. It seems like after 20 years, I'm still new :)

A few words on slotting.
Slotting is expensive in terms of developer time. Two different versions of the same package will want to install the same files. Slotting ...

Im trying to avoid making too many forum posts at for relevant answers so sorry guys ima treat you like the IT guy gets treated at a party and ask you loads of questions in a disrespectful sounding way, not trying to be rude to be honest

Im stack on reemerging rust every 3 days because rust-bin ...

oh nana you misunderstand, I am looking for hardening in any way, its just the network attack vector is more popular on xorg-server so i focused on that

I do not recall the state of the code or the configuration language for doas . I recall that the configuration language for sudo is rather unpleasant to work with, and suspect that many sites confer far more sudo privilege than is needed simply because assigning an exactly correct amount is too ...

What is the point of this? If you want the shell to go away, just exec "$@" . Using eval is usually wrong. Using CMD && exit || exit looks unnecessarily complex. If you do not want to exec , you could use ; exit instead of the && || combination.
That was a mistake I wrote this from memory, here is ...

but I noticed this here years ago https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1071044-highlight-.html
I disabled it.
brilliant thank you, I wonder why this is not the default, it being commented out with a second comment saying why and what it does, or a man entry or something ;/, nevertheless what is ...

To be honest I am baffled by the results up until this point, the points I have seen just up until now are simple, doas is an unofficial port and while some users see it as a vulnerability not having the right kernel access as the bsd og the compactness of code is
su -,sudo -i or any sudo variation ...

I have seen useflags for xorg-server being notably xcsecurity and suid, I have no idea what xcsecurity so it is disabled is and I am not sure about suid viability either, you would argue some programs are safer with a sticky bit but others are not in which case I haven't enabled it

no idea if any ...

Honestly, do you prefer having programs like sudo and doas in your "daily driver"? Or you you just avoid the security escalation vulnerability of having a program such at this and just run tty1 root tmux/screen? If tty then have you though about hardening your keyboard and xorg so programs cannot ...

I have been converting images on upscayl for hours, cp -r imagesfolder /usb/imagefolder , du -sh /usb/imagefolder/* data is there ( because this is the second time im doing this) , umount /usb, reboot to gentoo, mount /usb, cd /usb/imagefolder, du -sh ./* all images 0 bytes !?!?!!

It's a conundrum whenever I compile a kernel if the drivers I picked will work with my hardware or not. Sound codecs specifically are a headache, I have had times where output to input loopback was a thing so in voice chats everyone could hear me gaming so I was forces to push to talk.
