This repository contains ebuilds which fall into the following categories:

• ebuilds modified from those in portage for supporting additional features (usually with new USE flags)

• version bumped higher than those yet in the portage tree

• fixed ebuilds for updated dependencies or where there is bug in the portage version which hasn't yet been fixed

• all new packages not currently in portage

There are many new ebuilds for packages that are not in Portage, many of them are "live", this includes for example, app-i18n/libphonenumber, as required for syncevolution to build with dbus-pim support. If anybody wants a stable version of any of these ebuilds, let me know. Also feel free to open Gentoo bugzilla entries for new ebuilds from this repository, just do please drop me a note.

I have recently removed nearly all ebuilds from this repo since it suffered from severe bit-rot and neglect. I am gradually adding back ebuilds I am prepared to maintain or if there is a request for them, but I'm going to try to keep it clean.
