Due to sakaki-tools overlay starting to get outdated and throwing extra stuff to the screen, I decided it was time I created my own overlay. I will eventually start adding my own ebuilds that I've made of my Odroid boards over the years... I've used sakaki-tools as a template for my overlay and kept the showem ebuild.
Please note that this overlay is just my collection. I can't guarentee I will fix any issue you're having but please let me know and I can try...
The following are short form instructions. If you haven't already installed git(1), do so first:
# emerge --ask --verbose dev-vcs/git
Next, create a custom /etc/portage/repos.conf
entry for the pudlez-tools overlay, so Portage knows what to do. Make sure that /etc/portage/repos.conf
exists, and is a directory. Then, fire up your favorite editor:
# nano -w /etc/portage/repos.conf/pudlez-tools.conf
and put the following text in the file:
[pudlez-tools]
# PuDLeZ's collection of ebuilds...
# Maintainer: PuDLeZ ([email protected])
location = /usr/local/portage/pudlez-tools
sync-type = git
sync-uri = https://github.com/pudlez/pudlez-tools.git
priority = 50
auto-sync = yes
Then run:
# emaint sync --repo pudlez-tools
If you are running on the stable branch by default, allow ~amd64 keyword files from this repository. Make sure that /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords
exists, and is a directory. Then issue:
# echo "*/*::pudlez-tools ~amd64" >> /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords/pudlez-tools-repo
Now you can install packages from the overlay. For example:
# emerge --ask --verbose app-portage/showem
