overlay

@jaredallard's overlay for Gentoo Linux.

Usage

I recommend using app-eselect/eselect-repository: emerge --ask app-eselect/eselect-repository

# Git instance I use:
eselect repository add jaredallard git https://git.rgst.io/jaredallard/overlay.git

# Or, Github if you prefer!
eselect repository add jaredallard git https://github.com/jaredallard/overlay.git

Optional (but recommended): Un/mask individual packages

This is recommended as per Gentoo's ebuild repository best practices.

First, mask all of the packages in this overlay:

mkdir -p /etc/portage/package.mask
echo "*/*::jaredallard" >/etc/portage/package.mask/jaredallard

Then, unmask packages as needed by either;

• Automatic (via dispatch-conf): emerge -av --autounmask <package>::jaredallard
• Manual: Create a file in /etc/portage/package.unmask

Development

Regenerating All Manifests

If, for some reason, you need to regenerate the following fd (find replacement) command may be useful:

fd -e ebuild -x dirname | sort | uniq | xargs -o -n1 ./rebuild-manifest.sh
