Gentoo at Open Source Development Labs (OSDL)
---------------------------------------------
 =20
The GWN-team received a story from Leann Ogasawara and other members of=20
the Open Source Development Labs (OSDL)[22], of how Gentoo is used at the=
=20
laboratory. We would like to present you the full story in this week's=20
GWN:=20

 22. http://www.osdl.org/
=20
=E2=80=9COSDL is utilizing Gentoo for various projects here at the lab. O=
ne such=20
project is the BRT (Binary Regression Testing) project. The purpose of th=
e=20
BRT project is to execute suites of regression tests focused towards=20
specific application binaries on a specific set of software packages. The=
=20
goal is to make it easier for application developers to run regression=20
tests on the latest open source software stack and to capture the results=
.=20
The need to build a customizable set of software packages from the bottom=
=20
up is what initially drew our interest towards Gentoo, and more=20
specifically, the Portage package management tool. We needed a tool that=20
would not only automate a package's build and installation process, but=20
also be in sync with the latest package release as well as older versions=
.=20
The tool also needed to be able to track build dependencies for a package=
=20
and handle their installations smoothly. The only additional functionalit=
y=20
we would maybe like to see in Portage is the ability to automatically=20
remove a package's build dependencies but keep the run time dependencies=20
installed (an ebuild DEPENDS vs RDEPENDS thing). That way our test system=
=20
would only have the absolute necessary set of packages that we want=20
installed and the extraneous packages wouldn't have a chance to possibly=20
interfere with our tests we want to run. Other than that, we've been very=
=20
pleased with the Portage tool and Gentoo in general. Since we first=20
started playing with Gentoo and researching what it could provide for us,=
=20
we've been using it on a daily basis and it has played an integral role i=
n=20
the development of our project. Other developers at OSDL have also starte=
d=20
using Gentoo in their day to day tasks and often prefer to use it as thei=
r=20
test platform of choice.=E2=80=9D=20

http://www.gentoo.org/images/gwn/20050523_slarti.jpg
=20
This week's dev-of-the week is Tom Martin, better known as Slarti. He is=20
an AMD64 keyworder, maintainer of some net-mail packages, part of the=20
shell-tools herd and recruiter. His next "big thing" will be testing Mono=
=20
on AMD64 with the help of the Mono maintainer Peter "latexer" Johanson. A=
s=20
with many Gentoo devs, Gentoo is his first OSS project and also the=20
software project he's most proud of (to be more precise, his work on=20
mailer-config and the UTF-8 guide[23]). He also enjoys recruiting new=20
developers and seeing that they do =E2=80=9Cthe Right Thing=E2=80=9D=E2=84=

=20
Although he appears to be more, he is still at school in Guernsey, Channe=
l=20
Islands, where he'll soon have his final GCSE exams. Guernsey is a small=20
island with about 65000 permanent residents and about 24 square miles=20
large.=20
=20
His favourite programs are a wild mix: =E2=80=9CZsh is about the coolest =
thing=20
I've ever seen. I think imagemagick, LaTeX, rubber, mpd and t-prot are al=
l=20
very useful programs, too.=E2=80=9D Those usually run within Openbox, acc=
ompanied=20
by mutt, vim, irssi and their helper programs. Of course, they all run on=

programming usually Ruby is (ab-)used (since it has a =E2=80=9Cgreat conc=
ept of=20
OOP=E2=80=9D), running within rxvt-unicode.=20
=20
When not glued to a computer he enjoys playing rugby and guitar, but also=
