Hello,
iam pretty new to gentoo and i already messed around a bit with portage, but i just wanted[/list] to ask if some more experienced people could give me some tips what i could improve and what i should add/remove etc.
Here is my make.conf:

As you can see, i switched to clang, as i prefer it. For stability i also have a gcc backup compiler:

I greatly appreciate all of your answers and tips 
Also, i have one more question. Is there a way how i can pause portage compilation and install a file with another portage instance meanwhile and then resume the other one? This sounds really stupid, ik but iam working on a portage hook that can automatically create the proper file in package.env/ when the compilation failed with my clang settings to fall back to the gcc backup and i was wondering how the best way to make it was. |
