This page is a proposal for integrating the Funtoo profile system into Gentoo Linux.

=== Reference ===
 
* [[Funtoo 1.0 Profile]] - description of the system.
* [[Creating Profiles]] - how to add the profile system to a non-Funtoo tree.
* [[Portage Profile Logic]] - How Portage processes profiles.
 
=== Authors ===
 
* [[User:Zerochaos]]
* [[User:Drobbins]]
* [[User:Oleg]]
 
== Requirements and Design Ideas ==
 
=== Eselect Profile Support ===
 
We want eselect-profile to support both the funtoo style profiles and the gentoo style profiles at the same time First thought, says if /etc/{,portage}/make.profile is a symlink, only show gentoo style profiles; this will hide the changes from unsuspecting users so they don't accidently set an experimental profile as gentoo tries to catch up.
 
If /etc/{,portage}/make.profile is not a symlink, then show a list of old style profiles and new style profiles.
This may require funtoo to remove profiles.desc and profiles.eselect.desc from gentoo before replicating.
 
=== Catalyst Support ===
 
* seems trivial, support catalyst setting new style profiles.
* input requested from funtoo team on suggested syntax
 
=== Build Profiles in Gentoo ===
 
Build prototype profiles in gentoo for all possible x86/amd64 varients.
* mgorny has some good ideas here for multilib stuff
* blueness has some good ideas for hardened and alternative libc implementations
 
=== Piggy-Back System for Funtoo ===
 
Funtoo currently imports various settings from the existing Gentoo system profiles. The new Gentoo profile system should be designed to facilitate this "piggy-backing" to allow for maximum collaboration between Gentoo and Funtoo Linux.
