Argent Linux – Gentoo-based Linux Distribution
Quoting: Argent Linux - Gentoo-based Linux Distribution - LinuxLinks —
It uses systemd and currently its packages are mostly development oriented. Gentoo does not provide precompiled packages for systemd, so Argent Linux covers this gap in a very stable manner.
Argent Linux is essentially using semi-rolling release model, with a stable branch and a dev (testing) branch, with over 10 years of constant development.
The distro uses EPKG as its package manager, a highly simplistic wrapper over portage, specially designed for precomiled binaries.
Argent was originally part of Rogentos Linux Group as the server and workstation branch of the bigger project, now it is a separate mostly hobby project.
