Highly experimental tooling ecosystem for Gentoo comprised of the following:
- scallop: bash library
- pkgcraft: core library
- pkgcraft-c: C bindings
- pkgcraft-tools: command-line tools
- pkgcruft: QA library and tools
- arcanist: package-building daemon
Compatibility with the official package management specification is aimed for, but not always adhered to. See the list of known deviations for details.
Repos using custom profile-formats extensions are not supported, see the related issue for details.
More information about the project can be found on its FAQ and development blog.
Using cargo-nextest is required to run tests in separate processes. Running
tests via cargo test will break due to its threaded approach since much of
the pkgcraft ecosystem relies on bash which isn't thread-friendly in any
fashion.
In addition, crates with the test feature require it to be enabled when
running tests so use cargo nextest run --all-features --tests to run tests
for the entire workspace.
For bugs or other requests use issues.
For general support or questions use discussions.
