[β] mumblerfish@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 child) Run a Gentoo Prefix maybe? You get portage and can install customized packages like one does, without risking the system. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] poinck@lemmy.world 1 point 11 months ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 child) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] mumblerfish@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago I don't think a Gentoo Prefix is anything but an environment directly on the host, it's not containerized in any way. For me its for a system where the package manager is a bit outdated or I need to patch it, then installing with portage by a Gentoo Prefix helps me do that. permalink fedilink source parent
