My autotooling likely could stand a good look over... so since you were looking to autotool portage already, /me thinks you just volunteered :) > Uhm, worked for nothing - but i can't google out a hint where to get > cvs/svn (readonly) access to portage itself, is this undesired ? It's undesirable there isn't any access to the cvs rep for gentoo... there is talk from Ramerth (lance... something) to bring it back sometime this year, but not sure. Meanwhile, I update http://dev.gentoo.org/~ferringb/portage-cvs.tar.bz2 on occasion, usually either when I remember, or someone comes looking for something. Note it's developmental. If you use it as your main pkg manager, well, you just stepped up to suffer the bugs, and help fix them :) > However - i want to become portage to work on non-Gentoo Unixes too, > such as HP-UX, AIX, SunOS, Cygwin and others, Sans cygwin, I'm after a similar goal. I'd personally like our binpkg support to be *much* better, ability to manage other formats, fex dpkg (yes it's insane, but hey, so am I). > So - i'm willing to help in developing portage... stick your head in #gentoo-portage on irc.freenode.net... if you've got a specific itch to scratch codewise already, cool, otherwise there is a collection of things that need to be done. At some point in the near future, that list will be pushed to this ml also. ~brian
