I’m a complete Gentoo noob and I’ve been playing with Calculate for like a week or so. I’ve read the documentation but the directories are different on Calculate and I’d like to know how to use them.
For example /etc/make.profile, /etc/make.globals. and /etc/make.conf doesn’t exist. I suppose that defining my USE flags must be done on the /etc/portage/make.conf, but that’s a folder that contains a 0.base and a custom file and in the documentation, those aren’t specified on how they should be used.
As I said I’m a newbie coming from Manjaro where this kind of tinkering has never been necessary, but now I wanna learn how to use my system to its full potential, so what should I do? Why are they different? Should I create a /etc/make.conf file and establish my USE flags there, or should I just specify my USE flags in 0.base or custom by adding a new line (none of them have “USE=” written on their script)? Also what is the /etc/make.conf.catalyst for, which already has some USE flags set?
Thanks for your comprehension Calculate community.
