  1. -fstack-protector option enabled only in 4.8.3 (and above) gcc versions, currently not available in Funtoo. I'm not hardened specialist and cannot tell if this now forced for hardened kernel and profile

    i'd like to have 4.8.3 gcc ebuild updated, it has some important fixes. This should be reported on bugs.funtoo.org, addressed to drobbins.

    Refrence:

  2. there're some controversial points in your post. There is no absolute guarantee about ebuilds and stability and dependencies. Sometime ebuilds and updates breaks things, sometimes it's clean. Funtoo trying to break this in various ways. Biggest and most important divergence from Gentoo, is that Funtoo is a user-oriented and user-driven distro. Unlike Gentoo, where most works looks like hobbiyst, hackery and so on ---no rationale, no QA (quality assurance), no production ideas, just make it run over the stream, fix just to fix, lack of strong leadership and centralized idea.

     

    1. We would need to get details about "unbootable" It happens, when misconfigured system

    2. We support all users who would like merge their ebuilds into portage tree

    3. Ebuild is the tool to control, install software in the way developer want (and it shouldn't harm USERS at first) that's major achievement in package managent

    4. Yes, unfortunately this problem persist.
