My Gentoo LXD scripts

This repo collects the scripts and configs required to run "ultimate lxd testing environment".

Repository structure:

• container/bin

  Scripts to be executed inside the container.

• container/etc/portage

  All relevant /etc/portage files.

• host/bin

  Necessary scripts required to run from the host machine, in other words, outside the container.

• pkg-testing-tool-patches

  Easy to access patches for different needs, e.g. general PR testing, stabilization work...

TODO

Nothing too ambitious. As long as it works...

• General container:

  • I run often into multiple different build issues with packages in ::gentoo. A general bug reporting tool to automate bug reports would be nice.

• container/bin/rdeptester.sh

  • Getting a list of only stable-rdeps, for better arch testing work. Eix can do this and should be utilized...

• host/bin/test-pr.sh

  • Parameters for different kinds of testing, e.g.,

    • -n for -native-symlinks run, since some PRs are made just for that.
