改进记录包括:
1. A New Method for Packages Update
-
Better reliability
-
Each mirror stores version history, thus allowing either to update from any existing mirror or to create a local mirror.
-
Updates are faster
-
The update tool selects the fastest mirror.
-
Update configuration defaults to parallel fetching and installation.
-
Revdep-rebuild will not be called by cl-update unless enabled explicitly.
-
A higher level of testing
-
All binaries are tested on the testing mirror before being committed to the master.
-
Less traffic consumption
-
Portage will not be synchronized if no updates are available.
-
Distribution profiles were unified. You are free to choose between three brand new flavours, each with USE flags adapted to different needs. Over 2500 popular packages come as binaries.
-
System build tools were completely rewritten:
-
Calculate Console comes with a GUI mode.
-
Overlayfs support was added for fast deployment.
-
A list of binary mirrors can from now on be used for update.
