Hi,
I installed CL and plan to use binary only installation.
However I find out that some packages are still in source (ebuild).
I use binary profile with eselect and put FEATURES=“getbinpkg” in make.conf but I still have many packages build from source.
For exemple rekonq or ibus is not going to be compiled from source.
My questions are :
Is there a proper way to have binary only installation and which one
If not is it because binaries packages are not available for all ebuild ?
Thanks for the reply.
Is there a package list I can check ?
More generally how is going the package convertion from ebuild => bin ?
Do you have like a conversion factory ?
I am interested to know more about this process and eventually try to build my own source.
I know that gentoo can nativly use binary but did you do some specific developpment to allow this binary/source package availability ?
