We are aware of gentoo prefix and lmnd. lmnd currently does not work on OSX and other exotic platforms. I've tried lmnd and prefix occasionally on Fedora and have almost always run into problems. It does not "just work", even on a current Linux system. Including wonky errors where gentoo prefix wants to start manage uids on my system etc. I don't think there is any real regression testing for gentoo prefix on common platforms outside of lmnd. It is mostly tested as part of gentoo, but we would only want a small part of the gentoo system. Also, we want a system to rebuild sage according to our git tree status. In particular, no time stamps. But take version and dependency information out of our git tree. And possibly store old builds (tarball or other packaging system). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
