You may optionally choose to use the official binhost, in which case you will avoid quite a bit of compilation. For example, nginx and docker are both available as binpackages (but not gitea, which is not even stable for arm64). https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gentoo_Binary_Host_Quickstart As usual with binpackages, this fully respects your USE flags (but not CFLAGS) and transparently falls back to compiling from source for all packages: - without binary availability, or - for which you prefer a specific USE flag lacking in binary availability -- Eli Schwartz
