Gentoo is really nice with freevo because everything works good with the 
system packages. but i don't know how up-to-date the current ebuilds are 
(freevo-runtime ebuild used to compile some sort of runtime exclusivly for 
freevo, and i didn't like that). There is a cvs ebuild class, so someone 
could even make cvs ebuilds.

So i do recommend gentoo fully, if you're not put off by the install procedure 
(or use GLIS, gentoo linux install script)
