Description:
Thanks to a technology called Portage, Gentoo Linux can become an
ideal secure server, development workstation, professional desktop,
gaming system, embedded solution or something else -- whatever you
need it to be. Because of its near-unlimited adaptability, we call
Gentoo Linux a metadistribution.
What is Portage?
Portage is the heart of Gentoo Linux, and performs many key
functions. For one, Portage is the software distribution system for
Gentoo Linux. To get the latest software for Gentoo Linux, you type
one command: emerge --sync. This command tells Portage to update
your local "Portage tree" over the Internet. Your local Portage
tree contains a complete collection of scripts that can be used by
Portage to create and install the latest Gentoo packages.
Currently, we have more than 8000 packages in our Portage tree,
with new ones being added all the time.
