QA support in Gentoo has been a fluid, amorphous goal over the project’s history.

After nearly 12 years working on Gentoo and hearing blathering about how “Gentoo is about choice” and “Gentoo is a metadistribution,” I’ve come to a conclusion to where we need to go if we want to remain viable as a Linux distribution.

It’s been a few years, but I used to have an OSCON tradition of getting a bunch of interesting people together for lunch, from a variety of free-software and open-source communities.

When I’ve wanted to play in some new areas lately, it’s been a real frustration because Gentoo hasn’t had a complete set of packages ready in any of them.

One of Gentoo’s major weaknesses is the lack of a shared implementation that natively supports bindings to other languages for core, specification-level features such as dependency format parsing. Due to this deficiency, over the years I’ve seen the same algorithms implemented in Python, C, Bash, Go, and more at varying levels of success.| pkgcraft.github.io
