constructs? Anticipating your answer might be "keep them in your dev

no longer used by ebuilds? If foresee a tension between keep
be to write a howto and show the user how to manually convert some
typical binaries. There are only a handful that would be targeted.

But this assumes that paxctl is on the user's system which is not
guaranteed unless the users has emerged hardened-sources (which will
depend on paxctl). scanelf would have to be the replacement in such
cases because it is guaranteed to be there by the profiles.

thing to be careful of is that there is a lot of cruft under
the hardened profiles, some really old deprecated material that I have
not yet cleared out. You really don't want to use one of that. Just
watch out for any warning about deprecated profiles.

th sys-kernel/hardened-sources, we also stabilize sys-apps/gradm
because it is the userland tool for setting up RBAC in the hardened
kernel. We often need to stabilize the two at the same time.

We're planning on starting with the minor arches and then moving onto
x86 and amd64. Since this has the potential to impact all profiles
(given the complex inheritance structure), we'd like any feedback or
caveats before we proceed.

Agreed. For example, if one does cluster management with pacemaker
or heartbeat you need to stick to more traditional shell based init
scripts. Except for the lack of manpower, it would be nice to offer
our users different flavors of system startups, but dropping
es the
"otherwise" work. If we have herds listed before maintainers, do you
still assign to the first maintainer? In other words, do you only
default to the first herd if there are no maintainers listed at all?
