I would like to have something not to dated. The website lists Lunar or 
Kinetic Kame as versions...

This seems to be the repository for kinetic kame:

Well its my private tinkering project...
Do you have something i can build upon. I think one hurdle would be the custom 
build system?

Strange, i think if i just do a build of DistroKit i can observe that make 
just stops. I can restart it so a
for i in `seq 1 10`; do ptxdist -je16 -ji16 go; done; 
Works faster than a normal build, so the failure is that not all packages are 
getting build?

Best regards
