Paludis

Paludis on Gentoo

Installation

USE="-python glsa inquisitio pink ruby visibility" emerge paludis

Configuration (Portage compatible)

With this configuration you are able to still use portage, although paludis will be sloooow and portage will spit out a few warnings when there are any kde4-svn ebuilds installed since it can't handle them but it will still work. It's a good first step to migrate and get used to paludis.

# mkdir -p /etc/paludis

# mkdir -p /etc/paludis/repositories

# cat /etc/portage/package.use >> /etc/paludis/use.conf

# cp /etc/portage/package.unmask /etc/paludis/package_unmask.conf

# cp /etc/portage/package.mask /etc/paludis/package_mask.conf

# paludis -i --dl-reinstall if-use-changed everything --pretend

Configuration (Portage incompatible Part II - Gentoo Offical Tree)

Now that we have played around a little with Paludis we really don't need Portage compatibility anymore, so lets adjust our configuration to speed up Paludis.

# mv /usr/portage/distfiles /var/cache

# chmod g+w /var/tmp/paludis

# mkdir -p /var/cache/paludis/gentoo/provides

# mkdir -p /var/cache/paludis/gentoo/names

# mkdir -p /var/cache/paludis/metadata

# chown -R paludisbuild:paludisbuild /var/cache/paludis

# chown -R paludisbuild:paludisbuild /var/cache/distfiles

# chown -R paludisbuild:paludisbuild /var/tmp/paludis

# paludis --regenerate-installed-cache

# paludis --regenerate-installable-cache

Configuration (Portage incompatible Part II - (optional) KDE Overlay (genkdesvn)

# paludis dev-util/git --install

# mkdir -p /var/cache/paludis/kde4-experimental/provides

# mkdir -p /var/cache/paludis/kde4-experimental/names

# chown -R paludisbuild:paludisbuild /var/cache/paludis

# paludis --sync x-kde4-experimental

# paludis --sync kde4-experimental

# paludis --install kdebase-scm* --dl-suggested install --pretend

# eselect news read new

update:
paludis --sync gentoo kde4-experimental
paludis --install --dl-reinstall if-use-changed world --pretend
paludis --install --preserve-world --dl-reinstall-scm daily --continue-on-failure if-satisfied genkdesvn-all --pretend

revdep-rebuild:
