There’s always Paludis. It’s basically “Portage but C++”. And seems to emphasize decentralized repositories more. I’ve never used it personally, but I’ve been curious since I learned of it.
I’ve dove into Exherbo installs, enthusiastically, several times, aspiring “this time, I’ll immerse myself like it demands, and make it my daily driver”. Yet to take. [Close, at least a couple times]. Love it to pieces still though. Never had the gall to try paludis in gentoo yet though [not even briefly to see how distinct from Exherbo’s quirks of implementation]. I do love its philosophy of decentralised repos, mirroring / resulting from, the philosophy of all users are developers. … Maybe another 19 years in gentoo bootcamp, I’ll be ready to give Exherbo the dedication it demands, to be able to properly use it. … Until then, portage remains fave.
C++
How long until there’s a vibe coded drop-in replacement for portage/paludis/pkgcore written in rust? :3

Thanks. Yeah.
