• Milestone: 0.5

  No date set

  • check system dependencies among the toolchain etc. and prevent minitage to run if errors.
  • dynamic dependencies and configuration A LA PORTAGE
    • custom additional cflags
    • Allow us to use system dependencies by no-minimerging some dependencies<br>

  As we will not change cflags to search for specific distro path but the standard /usr/mib and /usr/local/lib, using this at your own risk.
