Project Summary
Gentoo Linux is a versatile and fast, completely free Linux distribution geared towards developers and network professionals.

Portage is a true ports system in the tradition of BSD ports, but is Python-based and sports a number of advanced features including dependencies, fine-grained package management, "fake" (OpenBSD-style) installs, safe unmerging, system profiles, virtual packages, config file management, and more.
