    Portage remains to this day my favorite cli. It’s nice to look at and provides all the info I want.

    It’s the one thing I miss from gentoo…

        “waves vaguely”

        Portage was great but losing a day whenever there was a glibc upgrade or something that caused a more “exciting” upgrade than usual wasn’t worth it. I wanted more stability after a while.

          I can’t remember ever having a glibc related update problem. eselect news is always there for me. (:

          I only have rarely a perl update related problem, but usually solvable with a world update. And since there are now binpkgs I only compile what has differing useflags from the selected profile. Portage has never been better!
