A quick look at Gentoo Linux
I built a gentoo installation while maintaining a working system, chroot'ing to build
it bit by bit from a Debian system.
One more advantage is the capability to have more than one working version of
kde. I have 2.2, 3.0, 3.1 and cvs head on my system. Have to hack a little to not
mess up configuration, but it's all there.
Gentoo is perfect for someone who wants to start contributing to a project. Quite
a few cvs ebuilds are available. Oddly it cuts away some of the learning curve on
the bleeding edge.
