Yum is in the gentoo repo, but no idea if it does anything or works... I
would have thought getting the dependency database (or whatever it's
called) would be the issue?
That said - why on earth would you want to..?
If you are savvy enough to run Gentoo on your host then I can't really
see why you would ever deviate from that on the guests? RPM based
distros are basically just a subset of gentoo... ;-)
