========================
Requirements
=======================
-- Python 2.3 or greater
-- A portage snapshot
+- Python 2.4 or greater (may still work with 2.3)
+- A portage snapshot (or portage tree to make your own)
- A Gentoo seed stage tarball
+- md5sum/sha1sum for simple digesting (MD5/SHA1)
+- Archive-Zip for CRC32 checking
+- shash for advanced digesting (SHA224 RIPEMD128 RIPEMD320 SHA384 RIPEMD256 SHA256 SHA512 RIPEMD160

# Simple desriptions of catalyst settings. Please refer to the online
# documentation for more information.
# seedcache = use the build output of a previous target if it exists to speed up
# the copy
# snapcache = cache the snapshot so that it can be bind-mounted into the chroot.
-# WARNING: moving parts of the portage tree from within fsscript *will* break
-# your cache. The cache is unlinked before any empty or rm processing, though.
