So far the main difference I've seen:
With Gentoo you have to compile everything yourself (as much as I can tell).
With Arch, you _can_ compile everything yourself, but don't have to: official repos have packages precompiled, but the package source is there if you want something different.
- albertzeyer 15y agoOn Gentoo, you can also use binary packages. You can setup some variable to some host which has all the binary packages for you. There are some public servers with x86 and amd64, although none are really official.
