Hi!

I'm porting linux to an embedded arm system. I'm using scratchbox to build applications, since it makes "porting" much easier (I just have to use the normal ./configure && make && make install mainly). However now I have about 30-40 packages built... and it's getting to be a real mass.

I use gentoo on my desktop pc, and I like how portage works, so I try to use portage instead. But to minimize problems I'm thinking about using it inside scratchbox. Anybody has done that? Any docs about it?

And one more question: I was thinking that I build the apps using portage, however to create actually the rootfs and maintaining the packages I would use a binary package manager. Is there a script to make binary packages from all of the installed packages? And maybe a "light" versions of portage which install binary packages only (which we could deploy on the target)?

Thanks in advance!
