Hi everyone,
I'd like to make people aware of a new-ish email list for Gentoo on musl
--- that's basically a full Gentoo system (5000+ packages) with musl
replacing glibc. If you've seen my previous posts you know that I've
been working on that and recently hit a milestone with a full desktop
system.
Up till now I've been (ab)using the gentoo-hardened@l.g.o email list for
occasional announcements and discussion. And out of courtesy I've
avoided (ab)using musl@l.o.c. We need a place to submit patches and
have gentoo-musl specific discussions without poluting these other
lists. So ... I'd like to encourage you to use
gentoo-m...@lists.gentoo.org
for discussions about Gentoo on musl.
Here are some links describing the project so you have some idea what
this list is about:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Hardened_musl - minimal gentoo
images (aka stage3's) for various arches/abis using our vanilla and
hardened compiler
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Hardened_musl/Bluedragon - a
security-enhanced, fully featured XFCE4 desktop, amd64 Gentoo system,
built with musl.
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:RelEng_GRS - the release
engineering tool by which the desktop is built - its of interest for
maintaining the desktop using prebuilt packages
http://releases.freeharbor.net/ - the host housing the release image,
extra packages and "tinderbox report" for failed packages.
I hope this message wasn't too intrusive but hopefully this will direct
discussion to where discussion belongs.
