Hello! This is very interesting work. I was thinking of starting a simialr approach - linking all sdks post-install into a shared dir. I do not think it should be a package, but rather a tool thta will pick the newest SDKs and create links. > As far as I got it correctly, the upstream dotnet-sdk-bin does not provide any simultaniously use of any other SDK nor RT at the same time (other then installing it manually). Yes, currently that is true. > Same thing for legacy versions, like dotnetcore 2.1 and dotnetcore 3.1 .. We only support >=6.0, let's focus on that. > I'm maintaing my own gentoo-dotnet repo now for years to exactly fill this gap. I have looked into your repo, please revise some packages you have there as they are already in :gentoo, eg. powershell. Many Thanks for your feedback! > I do not think it should be a package, but rather a tool thta will pick the > newest SDKs and create links. That would be awsome! > We only support >=6.0, let's focus on that. Sure! I must keep those versions for myself as I've to deal with that legacy things for my work (and no, I personally don't like to carry those). > I have looked into your repo, please revise some packages you have there as > they are already in :gentoo, eg. powershell. Yep, I'm still in the process of cleaning it up and getting it in sync/compatible to :gentoo. (so pls ignore the doubled ebuilds ;-)) IMHO: Another enhancement might be to add subslotting the dotnet-runtime-nugets so they can be bound to the dotnet-sdk[-bin] packages as a dependency without 100% version matching (which should lower the maintainence effort on older ebuilds). Here is an example: https://lab.simple-co.de/zappel/zDotnet/-/blob/zpl/dotnet_rework/dev-dotnet/dotnet-runtime-nugets/dotnet-runtime-nugets-8.0.1.ebuild#L38 and https://lab.simple-co.de/zappel/zDotnet/-/blob/zpl/dotnet_rework/dev-dotnet/dotnet-sdk-bin/dotnet-sdk-bin-8.0.101-r2.ebuild#L40 Let me know if I can assist/contribute somehow. (and yes I'd like to become a gentoo-dev but I didn't found a mentor yet..) > IMHO: Another enhancement might be to add subslotting the > dotnet-runtime-nugets so they can be bound to the dotnet-sdk[-bin] packages > as a dependency without 100% version matching (which should lower the > maintainence effort on older ebuilds).

So we just can not swap to slot like https://lab.simple-co.de/zappel/zDotnet/-/blob/zpl/dotnet_rework/dev-dotnet/dotnet-sdk-bin/dotnet-sdk-bin-8.0.101-r2.ebuild#L40 > Let me know if I can assist/contribute somehow. (and yes I'd like to become > a gentoo-dev but I didn't found a mentor yet..) I could be your mentor but we would have to work more together first. I would encourage you to make pull requests on the gentoo/gentoo GitHub repo for .NET packages that you need and eventually becoming a proxied maintainer (I'm not sure you already are one). We have a #gentoo-dotnet IRC channel so we can discuss .NET, Gentoo and organizational issues there. > I could be your mentor but we would have to work more together first.

I reall appreciate your offer(about metorship). Sadly I can't do this before Monday as I'm currently on a short weekend-trip. ;-)
But I'm going to join the IRC as soon as possible and get in touch with you.
Have a nice weekend!
