If you want to bring trademarks in - yes referring to GNU as "Linux" is trademark infringement.
Of course the Linux Foundation in fact silently encourages such trademark infringement, as it gives them all the credit and thus advertising.
>And the conversation is very explicitly about Linux, see the OP of "MAKE LINUX SIMPLE AGAIN"
As far as I can tell, the OP was writing about GNU/Linux or LiGNUx, but neglected to name the GNU.
>the archive (Gentoo) posted in combination with the Linux that needs simplifying, would quite literally create Gentoo Linux.
If you wish to exclude mention of GNU because you hate freedom, applying the grammar rules of English, that would be Gentoo/Linux or Gentoo+Linux or Gentoo with Linux, as the Gentoo project isn't just a version of Linux (although a small part of the project produces customized proprietary versions of Linux that would be correct to refer to as "Gentoo Linux").
