Using with plain (recent) Portage
---------------------------------
Create a new config file under `/etc/portage/repos.conf/fritteli.conf` with the following contents:
[fritteli]
auto-sync = yes
location = /usr/local/portage/overlays/fritteli
sync-type = git
sync-uri = https://gittr.ch/linux/gentoo-overlay.git
You may adapt the `location` attribute to your system's own setup.
If you prefer to use the overlay hostet at GitHub (which tends to be more stable but less up-to-date than the one hosted at gittr.ch), you may use `https://github.com/fritteli/gentoo-overlay.git` for the `sync-uri`.

If you haven't used layman yet, just run these commands:
If you haven't used layman yet, just installing running these commands:
