Personally I think we're too small of a team to necessitate sub-
projects like this. This being said, I don't see any problem
deferring to kito on this issue, since he is the one with the
knowledge on this subject.
Pretty much my feeling, but if it were needed/wanted, it would be an
alt sub-project as it reaches further than just os x.
I just say this because I think you are the one with the knowledge
here. Feel free to post regular updates of the ongoing work,
bottle-necks, issues and where work is needed to the list.
Kito - I would love to get involved with the prefix work. Further,
I completely agree with you that this is a priority. The reasons I
haven't to date are as follows:
(1) limited time due to college + ongoing interviews
(2) no idea of how to get involved with it.
(3) the feeling that I would not be particularly useful in this area.
This being said, if you can roll out a todo list and a minimal
readme for getting this type of setup running, I would love to be
involved with it.
Excellent. I'm finishing up the last few system packages right now
(cctools and gcc mainly), then I want to get the 2 major bugs fixed,
collision-protect(many false positives) and binpkgs (getting key
errors on pkgmerge). After that I'll bug brian to help me roll a new
patch against current portage (rc7 at the time of writing), post an
install pkg and stage1 for darwin/osx, and get the overlay in the svn
module. Oh..and make a page on the wiki.
I warn you ahead of time that my python knowledge is non-existant.
No worries, theres lots to do on the bash/ebuild side as well. The
more ebuilds we can get in the overlay the better. Also need help
testing on other archs and in a traditional non-prefixed install to
catch any regressions.
