[gentoo-dev] How a new ARCH is added to Gentoo?
Hi, Is there any article that elaborate my question? My aim is to explain, why Gentoo is much more agile then any other binary distribution when hopping between arches. Lets say we started development on x86, then we want to move to another arch, or a totally new arch. I would like to know the process, lets say compared to Debian. Regards, Kfir
