The Funtoo Linux project has transitioned to "Hobby Mode" and this wiki is now read-only.
Funtoo Next-Release Project
This is the Next-Release project, which is focused on the "next" release of Funtoo Linux. This a more aggressively updated release of Funtoo that is intended to perpetually be improved.
There are other projects that are related to Next-Release but have their own project -- see Project:Media-Kit.
We reserve the right to break or make disruptive changes in next-release AT ANY TIME!
Please understand, depending on your system performance and package load, it may take a very long time to upgrade.
Where to begin
Please allow the following thread to introduce you to the next release of Funtoo. https://forums.funtoo.org/topic/4970-announcing-next-release/
It is shockingly easy to get started, should you choose to. Thanks @drobbins
To convert a system to next-release:
Do a world update on your system and specifically ensure you have the latest portage and ego installed. Add "release = next" to the "[global]" section of /etc/ego.conf Run "ego sync" Then run "epro build next".
As always, whenever you make changes to your profile, perform a world update. # emerge -DuavN @world
