tfw your shitty meme distro doen't even have automatic dependency resolution
gentoo is obsolete garbage in 2018
compiling takes too long on older systems
with newer systems the optimization speed in undetectable
even fucking arch (still shit) has proper dependency resolution. the only meme distro even worth considering is void but package manager is a gimmick more than anything else
pic related, slackware's "package management" is so fucking horrific some people don't even consider it an actual package manager

i'd expect a gentoo user to at least know how to use proper grammar
and at that point why use gentoo over a proper fully-featured distro like fedora, opensuse or ubuntu?
23 months ago
yea you cant do anything on gentoo
23 months ago
You can choose to make it full-featured or highly specialized, it's your choice.
That's one of the main draws.
Of course there are other advantages but I digress.

This 3 distros are systemD pulseaudio trash. And they are not fully-featured because you cannot choose package version.
Gentoo is not about compiling it's about choise of package version you arch virgin.

systemd hate is a meme, systemd is much better than sysv or openrc, both are built upon old and crusty code, only runit and systemd are good init systems nowadays.

Are you a nigger, or something?
Well, I wouldn't be surprised.
hey these plastic bottles don't have automatic removal, like the sticks and mud I am accustomed to
I want my garbage to be removed automatically because my people are so backwards and subhuman that now our entire rivers are full of plastic waste
hey these languages don't have automatic garbage collection
I want my garbage to be removed automatically because my people are so backwards and subhuman that now the entire memory is full of dangling pointers and otherwise non reclaimable memory

Why do distros even have different package managers? Is there really still no package manager that would satisfy every autist that they feel the need to make more of them?

What the fuck are you talking about?
gentoo is obsolete garbage in 2018
Yes, this is why it still has a huge developer and user community behind it. Truly obsolete and dead.
compiling takes too long on older systems
Then don't fucking use current packages on old systems. The current build systems and programs are not 10 years ago's programs and build systems, everything is bloated as fuck now. Either use Slackware 3.1 on your Pentium II or fuck off.
with newer systems the optimization speed in undetectable
Nobody is using Gentoo for the 1% performance you fucking faggot. You fags are the ones who spouted that bullshit meme.
even fucking arch (still shit) has proper dependency resolution. the only meme distro even worth considering is void but package manager is a gimmick more than anything else
You still haven't defined what "proper dependency resolution" is.

It's fine if you don't like shit, but stop trying to project your issues with the software as general issues with the software.

systemd is much better than sysv or openrc,
I'm now convinced that you are paid by Redhat. Fuck off back to where you came from.
both are built upon old and crusty code,
sysvinit _maybe_, but openrc is fairly modern. Show me openrc code that's supposed to be crusty.
only runit and systemd are good init systems nowadays.

Gentoo's niche should be extreme security, portability, and ease of forking/spinoff. How am I to spin off the portage tree by snapshotting it and (say) permitting only GLSA-fixing updates? Say a set of Gentoo-to-custom-distro management tools.
Also it needs a Gentoo/Illumos port more badly than Gentoo/kFreeBSD. Illumos > FreeBSD with Zones, ZFS, etc.

Because in the very deep of our brains, we all know the only shit that matters between distros its the command to install a package, so if you wanna do your "own" distro without anybody saying "it's X-based distro" or "it's X clone" you would need to justify your distro by developing your own package manager, unless you wanna go full Canonical and have your distro be known as the "bad"/"bloated" version of the original.

It's a Gentoo image that has PORTAGE_BINHOST="cloveros.ga" in the /etc/portage/make.conf and packages built with CFLAGS="-Ofast -mmmx -mssse3 -pipe -funroll-loops -flto=8 -floop-block -floop-interchange -floop-strip-mine -ftree-loop-distribution" Gentoo is hands down the best Linux distro and CloverOS only makes this perfection easier to achieve.

When you install firefox on a base system, it transitively brings in about 700 dependencies. They are resolved.
Or do you mean some other bullshit like automatically detecting what dependencies a folder of source code needs (leading to mismatched deps and runtime crashes)?
gentoo doesn't have "extreme security", it has marginal security, which is still better than something like Arch or Ubuntu which are just turds.

what is distcc?

What's wrong with emerge's dependency resolution? Also, AUR packages don't have any kind of dependency resolution whereas overlays do have.
also, void has pretty comfy package manager.
Gentoo simply has a lot more freedom and it's more flexible. You can optimize and customize your packages. Gentoo is faster than Fedora/OpenSUSE/Ubuntu and ubuntu breaks when you do release-upgrade.
But FreeBSD has bad hardware support (when compared to loonix) and I can't trust them after their website got hacked some years ago.
kek, are you implying that monolithic and complex steaming pile of shit that is made by Lenntard Poopertering is better than OpenRC or even ancient system V init? System V init is old but at least its developers don't do the WONTFIX bs. System V init has modern replacements, that are sane, unlike SystemDick. And even if SystemD and System V init were the only options, then System V init would be the saner option.

Been using gentoo with openrc for about two years now. I fucking love it. It helps that I have an 8 core processor. I tried compiling it on an older netbook once and it took several days.

What's wrong with emerge's dependency resolution?
He's probably talking about Slackware. The only way I could imagine him claiming Portage being bad at dependency resolution is if he were just throwing out false accusations to be inflammatory. Everyone knows that Portage is one of the stronger package managers in the Ganoo/Linux world.

how do i emerge shitloads of things at once so when I wake up my frehsly installed gentoo has all my usual software?
22 months ago
Do whatever the manual says, then read this entire page and set each variable as needed:
wiki.gentoo.org/wiki//etc/portage/make.conf
Particularly:
MAKEOPTS="-j32 -l32"
EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--jobs=32 --load-average=32 --keep-going"
I'm sure there are more tricks, but this is what I use. Stuff always fails for me and requires masking and whatnot. There is also the jumbo file trick, on the forum, for emerging chromium faster on shitty PCs.
22 months ago
Oh, if you're wondering, emerge takes a list of atoms, not a single atom. Everything is lists or recursing folders of files. I'm sure you can use a file input somehow, too.
I believe you can also add atoms to the world favorites file, then 'emerge -uDNa @world'. I think I've replaced world and edited it manually, like a bad person. There's also a fetch only option if you only want to download packages. There must be a way to more aggressively fetch packages because it takes forever fetching when the particular job comes up.
