Paldo is a GNU/Linux distribution powered by Upkg technology.
One of the major benefits of using Paldo is the lack of local changes to its packages. The project has virtually no local changes, meaning every patch is one that will go upstream anyway (e.g. compile fixes) or one needed by the LFS build system to enable the development team to boostrap correctly. It's easy to make changes to the distro by providing a local version of the sources and specifications you've changed. You can also configure your system automatically through local different repositories (see My paldo).
In terms of flexibility, the whole distribution is built on top of Upkg, making it very flexible. Paldo aims to be a distribution according to the "just-works" principle, attempting to configure automatically as much as possible without user intervention. The project is task-oriented, meaning that rather than providing several programs to do one task, Paldo selects the program that does this task the best and includes it in the distribution.
Paldo supports cutting-edge technologies and is currently pure NPTL based (no linuxthreads support), meaning it does not work with a Linux kernel older than 2.6.x. The distribution only supports the x86 architecture at the moment and has no plans to extend that much except for the x86_64 platform. The project features only one desktop environment, the GNOME desktop environment.
Another significant advantage is that Paldo does not split packages, meaning that all development files will be installed if you install a library. All files you need around a package will be available as soon as it is installed. Overall, Paldo is an excellent distribution for those looking for a minimalist, task-oriented, and cutting-edge system.
