Ashamed to admit I learned of equery meta today. I'd previously been
relying on eix to find, say, the website associated with a package.

Yes, deluge has a GUI by default. I just build it with USE="-gtk -
libnotify -sound webinterface" and
How many torrents are you seeding, for a point of comparison?
I use deluge (headless) on my home server, seeding anywhere from 500-
1000 individual torrents, representing ~5TB of total data, and the
process is cruising along at just over 1GB of memory used.
Maybe qbittorrent just doesn't scale we

I've had success with installing rpm/dpk and installing a package
intended for another system. You might need to do some minor repairs
with directories, but it is an option.

I went with rust-bin because lots of GTK programs (evince, gimp,
deluge) as well as some other miscellaneous utilities rely on librsvg
which requires rust.
So, since I need

None of the ideas here helped me either.
Neither did changing the LANG nor MAKEOPTS.

I can't figure out why a perl update isn't building. This is only
happening on one single machine out of the half dozen Gentoo systems I
have running. I've never had issues building perl itself either.
Modules sure, but never the main perl package.
My search-fu is failing me as well, apparently

There is rust-bin, though. I use rust-bin on even brand new machines
and even though I try to use source builds whenever because I just
can't be bothered with the compilation problems and time.
