Hi,

Since I am going to help that person from time to time, it should be as sim= ilar as possible to Gentoo.

Which distribution would you recommend.

 Arch Linux is similar. Just imagine you have "emerge", except the= re's only binary packages. When you install it initially, you're le= ft on the command line with nothing installed except base packages, much li= ke Gentoo

And as an alternative to that, Ar= tix is based on Arch/Manjaro, leaves you with a desktop after install, and = uses openrc which you might be used to from gentoo.
