I have some basic stuff that showed this idea was feasible before I
sent it on, but I don't have anything public yet. I can start with a
branch (as mentioned in thread) and go from there.

I named it Adélie because the Adélie penguin is the closest living
relative to the Gentoo penguin (along with the Chinstrap; Chinstrap
Linux is a consultancy firm), and I personally feel that Adélie is the
closest binary relative to Gentoo's technical goals.
If you ha
GLEP 1 to how
changes can be made to GLEPs already posted on Bugzilla, but I am
definitely open to hearing any that the community has to suggest.

e they're good.
Forking Gentoo allows people to try out more wide-sweeping or drastic
changes without any danger.
The future can be cool and groovy if we have the freedom to tinker :)

The patch works on glibc systems too, and is important for
correctness. But ICE on a (nominally) supported libc is never okay.

the like, you could simply see what packages inherit branding.
If work lightens up I will try to get something hammered out by
Friday. Otherwise, I will probably have something by the weekend.
Thanks!

would be better to make it
implicit via eclass, for two reasons I can think of:
1) It will pull in the package before it is needed. Guaranteed.
2) On embedded/crossdev, the only package in @system is busybox. So
there is no branding present. That means that virtual/os-branding
would be
though.

Having tried this before, it doesn't work with Portage (at least as of
Sep 2015). Then again, it barely works hand-hacking it manually. :)

You could easily start with #3, and after some years, move to #1.
Anyone with a 20 year old Gentoo install (by that time) should expect
to have to do very heavy lifting.
I for one am more than willing to do whatever shell commands necessary
to make all my Gentoo installs agree on UIDs and g
