i’ve always been in awe of people who do this; it goes well beyond linux from scratch and they’ll never get rewarded for doing it… it’s purely a labor of love.
HEAVY emphasis on the words “labor of love” … should be getting paid for this and i know for a fact that people who do this professionally make around $200k a year for doing it becuase i worked with them for up until a couple weeks ago at old-silicon.
gosh, if only! at the present, I just see this project as a means for me to explore building a distro not based on any other, but I could imagine struggling to find the time to individually maintain each package in future… (unless there’s other maintainers too, which might happen if this project ends up going anywhere); still a long a way to go though, I suppose :p

hmmm, I’ve used it in the past and feel as though it might take the fun out of the project (in part); however, I absolutely do appreciate the suggestion!
From a quick glance, this is pacman with a yaml file instead of a shell script and PKGINFO (the latter was introduced for the same reason you’re doing it your way in the first place). The carcinization of package managers

Try Buildroot. It’ll speed things up.
