Week 11 Report

Hello,

This was my eleventh week in the GSoC for the project Gentoo-GPG. For the second half, I will be developing the new MetaManifest system that will provide an efficient and secure way to verify the integrity of Gentoo distribution.

My work for this week was to:

  • Finish optimizing and debugging the metamanifest script according to Zac’s feedback.
  • Test for all metamanifest cases.
  • Start rebasing all the changes in the previous commits.
  • Finish the email generation script and do the PR, which can be found here.

My plan for next week is to:

  • Finish up with metamanifest script by doing an elaborate PR.
  • Fix any issues that might appear during runtests.
  • Add more documentation and prepare for the evaluation.
  • Possibly continue making the metamanifest test for runtests but most likely I will need to finish it after GSoC.
