On a more serious note, how does updating apps on gentoo work? I understand that everything is built on your system, but then if the app is updated, do you need to re-compile every time?

      I started. Got a headache. Maybe its just user error and i didnt read the full handbook before starting, or just a very wordy handbook, but each step lists the systemd steps AND the openrc steps. Instead of one book for just openrc and another for systemd.

      Will read again tomorrow, and spin up another vm next weekend for attempt number 2
