My TODO list
Alpha
- aboot-2.0
Catalyst
Switch IA64 ISO boot with sys-boot/grub—DoneSwitch SPARC ISO boot with sys-boot/grub—Done- Switch SGI/MIPS ISO boot with sys-boot/grub
- Switch man pages away from app-text/asciidoc to something lighterweight bug #679374
- Or just make building the documentation optional?
Use squashfs images for porttree snapshots bug #274337—Done- Support handling arbitrary repos
Fix kerncache—Done- Switch to TOML for `.spec` files
- Consolidate stage[1-3] into a single catalyst invocation
- Have catalyst understand which stages are just temporary, and don't compress them, etc
- Use squashfs and mount in the next stage build using overlayfs
- Use the 'volatile' mount option in v5.10+?
Cross compiling supportSomething with QEMU? bug #431214—Done
Configure number of jobs/load-average in catalyst.conf—DoneWould allow specs to use the default `update_seed_command`
- Add some sanity checking to ensure that `pkgdir`, et al, set by catalyst match what portage is using
- Switch to pyproject.toml-based build system
- Overhaul the kernel building system
- Simplify and allow only a single kernel sources package to be used (e.g. for all of the kernels on a LiveCD)
- Containerize catalyst and break the dependence on the host system's bootloader
Use sys-apps/util-linux's Python libmount API instead of calling mount(8)—DoneRun only the functions that need bind mounts inside a mount namespace—DoneWill prevent catalyst from accidentally deleting things outside of the chroot
- Remove the dependency on dev-python/pydecomp
MIPS
- Stabilize profiles
X11
Make media-libs/libglvnd non-optional—Done
