Subject: [gentoo-dev] Paludis version 0.6.0
Date: Fri, 01 Sep 2006 01:45:56 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1157071556.10866.27.camel@gaspode> (raw)
Hiya all,
Just a quick note to let you know that the Paludis guys are happy to
inform you that they've just released version 0.6.0 of Paludis, the most
popular and widely used alternative to Portage. With this release
they're finally more or less VDB compatible with Portage, so switching
to and from Paludis is considerably more likely to work.
Paludis works with the normal ebuild tree, and can be expected to work
with most ebuilds that aren't webapps. As demonstrated by it not being
called "1.0", there are still bugs, missing features and general
oddities; thus Paludis is not suitable for production systems, and if
you care more about your data they encourage you to still use Debian.
However, Paludis is now more or less usable for atleast some people, and
it would be nice to get more testing from people who know what they are
doing.
More information can be found at http://paludis.berlios.de/ . In
particular, the
"Known Issues" and "Portage Differences" links may be of interest. There's also
a #paludis IRC channel on Freenode.
Ebuilds are in the main tree as sys-apps/paludis. Gentoo's bugzilla should *NOT*
be used for Paludis related issues, except for any bugs with the Paludis ebuild
itself.
As it no longer will rape your dog, I suggest you check it out.
With love,
Christelxx.
