Subject: [gentoo-user] Can Portage be used with FreeBSD or NetBSD?
Date: Tue, 01 Jun 2021 09:59:27 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210601095948.EA806E0825@pigeon.gentoo.org> (raw)

Can Portage be used as a package manager with anything other than Linux? 

I like some features of Portage; think it might be better than FreeBSD ports or NetBSD pkgsrc, or is just a case of the grass being greener on the other side?

I like the option "--with-bdeps=y", wish FreeBSD's synth and poudriere had that option.

But I don't want to use Portage where it would be incompatible.

Portage's assumption of location of python binary and /bin/bash are contrary to anything non-Linux, or even a Linux that uses another shell such as dash or mksh.

Tom
