Section: Unix

About:
ROCK Linux is a distribution build kit for creating Linux distributions. You can easily design and build your own distribution by choosing packages, compilers, and optimization options, and optionally enable the GCC Stack-Smashing Protector for enhanced security. It is also possible to choose custom configure options, cross-compile, and much more. Many specialized targets (customized distributions) have already been created, such as a Desktop, Router, or Minimal distribution. A variety of architectures are supported.

Release focus: Minor bugfixes

Changes:
Many package build errors got fixed and many packages updated. ROCK Linux now includes the first version of scripts/Emerge-Pkg to build and download a package, including its dependencies, into the system.
