Hi ppl,

a friend of mine just told me that Gentoo is based on Debian. I don't believe him but I don't know for sure and I'd like to getting an answer from ppl who are involved more than me...

No, Gentoo is not based on Debian in any way, shape, or form.

Your friend needs to actually visit www.gentoo.org and read about us. You should give it a read, too, so that you know for sure.

Gentoo is not based on Debian. However it uses some programs(in the system profile) created by debian devs.
