gentoo_update Introduction
Introduction
gentoo_update (Github repo) is a tool that automatically updates Gentoo Linux.
Motivation

Users have a large selection of different command utilities and a bunch of configuration options to choose from to tailor the upgrade process to their needs. Here is the list of some tools that are commonly used during an upgrade:

Week 4 report on porting Gentoo packages to modern C
Hello all,
This is my week 4 report on Modern C porting of Gentoo’s packages.
Well nothing interesting to report this week, just following my proposal
and focused on -Wimplicit-int type of bug for the first half of the week
while moving to -Wimplicit-function-declaration.However, if you follow my PRs on github [1], you will notice that it
happens I fix/send patches bugs that are not per my proposal’s timeline.
This happens because of multiple reasons, sometimes I randomly come
across a bug that is requires some rather easy patch, some other times I
come across a package that is not in the tracker listing bug and send in
a patch. I’ve informed my mentor (Sam) about such situation, and he
acknowledged me taking bugs at random and diverting from my proposal
workflow sometimes. -
