How to build Gentoo packages with Buildkite.
What are Gentoo packages?
Gentoo is a totally free Linux distribution. It uses the latest development tools and software technologies and is dedicated to quality rather than blindly following traditional usage patterns with binary packages and config files. Every part of Gentoo, including installation images, is free software; most of the source code is available to whoever wants it. Gentoo has been developed in an entirely open process, in which technical choices are made via discussion in email forums and IRC channels rather than by secretive members of some elite development cabal. Each package in Gentoo has its own maintainer who decides whether or not to include it; you are welcome to volunteer to Gentoo.
What is Buildkite?
Buildkite is a platform for running fast, secure, and scalable continuous integration pipelines on your own infrastructure. With Buildkite, you can deploy your Ruby, Java, Node or Python projects to the cloud in one click; run C++ projects on App Engine; run JavaScript, Go, RVM or Pipelines in any public or private Docker container; and install Docker images with pre-installed build tools like Go or Rust. Each job is created using our easy YAML syntax that supports arbitrary commands (eg. buildr), with no agent required.
