🧪 Aliaksei's Gentoo Linux overlay

This is my personal ebuild repository where I try to keep some packages up-to-date.

💾 Installation

In case you want to add it, please use eselect-repository.

eselect repository add mim git https://github.com/Jamim/gentoo-overlay.git

I encourage you to initially mask all the content of any new overlay, including mine.

echo '*/*::mim' >> /etc/portage/package.mask/overlays

🧑🏽‍🔬 Usage

You need to explicitly unmask packages that you intend to install from this overlay.

echo net-im/telegram-desktop::mim >> /etc/portage/package.unmask/overlays

Then you can install them as usual.

emerge net-im/telegram-desktop::mim -av

Note that ::mim can be omitted, so that you can keep receiving updates from the main Gentoo Linux repo or other overlays.

💡 Support

Feel free to submit an issue in case you have any trouble with this overlay or its content.
