Some questions:
1- Can I RSYNC_EXCLUDE everything except profiles and have an usable
system?
Depending on exactly how you're doing this, you'll probably want to keep
eclasses/ as well.
2- There was a portagesql effort, is it dead?
Yes. It has been for a while, afaik.
3- If I tweak a custom profile not to have dev packages such as gcc,
what kind of problems should I expect? Which packages from the base
profile MUST exist? The idea is that the client machines should not
be capable of compiling software.
You'll probably run into an ebuild somewhere that directly depends on gcc and/or
related dev packages (very likely one of the leftover 'system' packages).
4- Any ideas on how the conf files should be handled?
Nope :)
