Week 12 Report

Hello,

This was my twelfth 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:

  • Do a few more optimization and fixes for the email generation script.
  • Finish up with metamanifest script by doing an elaborate PR, which can be found here. (The testing failed because Gkeys is not implemented in portage yet but will be before the commits are merged)
  • Fix any issues that might appear during runtests for the metamanifest.
  • Add more documentation and prepare for the evaluation.

My plan for next week is to:

  • Document everything I have done so far in my blog with links to each individual commit.
  • Finish any final fixes and prepare for evaluation.
