This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 4880 and 3156) --GoukfNfPWk8AFNADeJHVGjOINlG6a8rco Content-Type: text/plain; charset=windows-1252 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I actually just started working on a repository building suite, project n= ame Remix. Remix builds only those packages/ports that have custom ports = options not found in any packages in any specified fallback repository, a= nd fetches/installs other packages (with compatible ports options) from s= pecified repositories (usually FreeBSD official repo). The main idea behi= nd Remix is that it saves A LOT of time when building a repository, since= only packages with ports options not available in any repositories are b= uilt from source. This is different from Poudriere, since Poudriere builds every (updated) = package from ports. That being said, it will take quite some time to get Remix production rea= dy. This is because: 1) I use the project to _learn_ efficient and correct shell programming. = My shell programming skills are still far, far from the legendary level I= personally want them to be. Need extra time to learn what patterns are g= ood, bad and ugly. I don't use any FreeBSD shell scripts as a reference, = so that I can learn from mistakes by having to do everything myself. Thus= , the actual programming will take a lot of time, since I will keep exper= imenting on spesific implementations of specific patterns ... but when a = spesific part is functional, it will be so perfect, clean and nice that i= t not need be even documented (right away), the code will be like self-ex= planatory poetry. 2) I am a perfectionist. This feature comes with my manic depressive diso= rder. 3) I am very lazy, I only work on it when I feel like it This means I am most likely going to rewrite the project from scratch mul= tiple times before I publish anything. But yeah, the idea of having a repository builder that would mix packages= from repositories and ports is valid. If somebody would implement such a= tool before me, OR if such could be implemented as a feature in Poudrier= e I would be very happy.
