[Move to more "unstable"?]

good way is to list what ebuilds you are missing or would like to be version bumped. For now you can write it here, for the future there is bugs.funtoo.org where you can request for a new/update ebuild.

I like to be bleeding edge myself, but as you grow older you will like stuff to just work and that is where funtoo is heading. Yes, it is not there yet. If you are considering yourself a developer or someone who can write and test ebuilds join #funtoo-dev on freenode irc.

Yeah I understand. But I kind of think you missed my point. For example "current" gcc is 7.2 but yet Funtoo is still on 5.4.0. Why? Eh thats not for e to really ask or answer. 

 

My point was (and I hope this is more clear) is maybe there is an unpublished core set that devs can get in to help track down bugs.

I just moved to current.

 

So my question is how does we test versions before they are moved into the current or build profiles? I understand its possible we just wait for other distros to test them but I somehow doubt it...

Hey fellas,

So far I am really enjoying Funtoo and what it has to offer. The only downside is its further behind than what I would like. Is there a good way to help test more "unstable" or "bleeding edge" packages for the community? I already have experimental selected in ego for my profile but so far that hasnt seemed to do much.

Thanks.
