Graphical Portage frontends

I discovered an interesting little utility today while browsing new file releases on SourceForge.net. It is called Porthole and it is a graphical frontend for the Portage system in Gentoo Linux. It uses GTK toolkit and blends perfectly with GNOME. I also tried to find some Portage frontend for KDE. I found KPortage and Kemerge, but unfortunately they are both not actively developed anymore. There is also portageMaster which is a Java frontend.

Still prefer the CLI above all else. :-)
 
Yeah me too. CLI gives you all the power and I find it easier to use.
