  1. Because current kernel is member of kernel set, emerge --depclean wants to remove package. That means kernel will be purged along with all its files (/boot, /usr/src/linux, etc...).

     

    Is there a way to exclude package from emerge --depclean process ? I think that by deleting kernel set and by adding package to world set, will fix it but still searching for an alternative.

    by --exclude

    --exclude A or --exclude 'A B C' for several packages

  2. it's fine to have limited choices. Too much freedom (or so called choices) often leads to anarchy. icedtea case. To make it bootstrap there're 2 choices. Rebuild gcc qith gcj support or emerge icedtea-bin. Funtoo dropped support fro gcj in gcc ebuilds. Also gcj support sheduled fro removal in upstream gcc. So we got only one way is: emerge icedtea-bin first. virtual/jdk ebuild has icedtea-bin candidate alternative. obviously this virtual can't have iceadtea, because you need icedtea-bin built first.

  3. yes, bash is slow too, mainly because of readline library but still. The're several portage rewrites exist. paludis (C++), nix package manager (haskell), maybe others exist too. But they are mainly doing same as portage, i.e their existance dubious from point it's just portage (but in different lang). Devs who doesn't like python, created it without making anything revolutionary.
