The problem with Gentoo is the user experience. It is fine if you stick to the beaten path (e.g. architectures like x86 with a large user base). The marginal ports are suitable for users that can deal with the odd build failure. For slow 68k machines, a gentoo port would benefit from chip-specific binary packages and distcc cross-compilers. I think Roman may be right if he meant that gentoo is attractive for a coldfire-only port. But as he points out, CF users alone may meet the debian release criteria, in which case, the gentoo option becomes moot. -f > > Cheers, >
