Andrzej Kardaś Gentoo Linux private unofficial overlay

Here you can find my personal overlay information. My overlay provides ebuilds that are not available in main portage tree or any publicly available overlay, but which are very useful to me.

Originally this overlay was created to prevent coping same ebuilds between computers I use. I decided to make it publicly available to share my work with others.

Most of the ebuilds available here are taken from bugs.gentoo.org, some of them are written, rewritten or updated by me. All credits should go to original ebuild author. More info about any of the ebuilds you will find by following the links provided below.

All ebuilds published here were tested by me, and I didn't experienced any problems with them. I must worn you I can not guarantee that they will work the same for you. Remember if you are using my overlay, you are doing these on your own risk. You have been warned.

Installation Instructions

My overlay can be used in Gentoo Linux and Gentoo Linux based distributions (like Sabayon Linux). The best way to use my overlay is to add it using layman overlay script. First you should install layman with subversion support in you system by simply running following command:

USE="subversion" emerge -av layman

next edit layman configuration file in you favorite text editor, for example:

nano /etc/layman/layman.cfg

and add the belows URL in the overlays section of this file. Don't forget to save changes.

http://www.kardasa.pl/overlay/kardasa.xml

Thats it. You are ready to go just run:

layman -a kardasa

to add my overlay to your system. Now you should be able to emerge any packet that is available there. If you are done with my overlay and want to stop using it just run:

layman -d kardasa
