Please leave a star to show that you're using this repo. If you possible let me know what you're using in case something breaks: https://github.com/arran4/arrans_overlay/wiki/I'm-using-register

Issues will be read and considered.

Note: Half of the ebuilds are generated using workflows, and half of those workflows are generated using: https://github.com/arran4/arrans_overlay_workflow_builder I have tried to annotate it where.

How to use this overlay

For automatic install, you must have app-eselect/eselect-repository or app-portage/layman installed on your system for this to work.

eselect-repository

eselect repository enable arrans-overlay

layman

layman -fa arrans-overlay

For manual install, through local overlay, you should add this in /etc/portage/repos.conf/arrans-overlay.conf:

[arrans-overlay]
location = /var/db/repos/arrans-overlay
sync-type = git
sync-uri = https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/arrans-overlay.git

Alternatively, you can create the file using tee:

$ sudo tee /etc/portage/repos.conf/arrans-overlay.conf << EOF
[arrans-overlay]
location = /var/db/repos/arrans-overlay
sync-type = git
sync-uri = https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/arrans-overlay.git
EOF

Afterwards, simply run emerge --sync, and Portage should seamlessly make all our ebuilds available.
