fritteli's Gentoo overlay
=========================
Gentoo overlay with some ebuilds that I found either outdated or missing in the official repository or in other overlays. Ebuilds are usually removed from this overlay whenever I find a version available in the official tree or in another overlay (provided I'm satisfied with them).
Build status of the [master branch](https://gittr.ch/linux/gentoo-overlay/tree/master), as seen by `repoman -p -x`: [![build status](https://gittr.ch/ci/projects/10/status.png?ref=master)](https://gittr.ch/ci/projects/10?ref=master)
Using with Layman
-----------------
Use layman to easily install and update overlays over time.
If you haven't used layman yet, just run these commands:
USE=git emerge -va layman
echo PORTDIR_OVERLAY=\"\" > /var/lib/layman/make.conf
echo "source /var/lib/layman/make.conf" >> /etc/make.conf
Then you can add this overlay wih:
layman -o https://gittr.ch/linux/gentoo-overlay/raw/master/layman.xml -f -a fritteli
Alternatively, you may use the overlay hosted on GitHub. That may not be quite as up-to-date as the one on gittr.ch. To use the GitHub version, use this command:
layman -o https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fritteli/gentoo-overlay/master/layman.xml -f -a fritteli
Keep the overlay up to date from Git:
layman -s fritteli
