Revision as of 02:01, May 3, 2015
This page intends to get your local overlay going, show how to revision bump a package, and sync your goodies to github.
page is incomplete, yell @ Threesixes (talk) in irc to finish it. moving it over from forums because it's completely unreadable there.
root # mkdir /var/overlay
Change the /var/overlay user and group to your own, everyone has the root user, and root group, so we'll use root for the example, though it should be changed to the primary unprivileged account used to edit the ebuilds. Clone the skeleton from github. Change the repo name from skeleton to your own repo name as you want to see it when emerging.
root # chown root:root /var/overlay && cd /var/overlay root # git clone http://git.funtoo.org/skeleton-overlay/ local && cd local echo "myoverlayname" > /var/overlay/local/profiles/repo_name
Change the readme message to what you want to show up on the front page of your repo:
/var/overlay/local/README.rst - Set the github front page messageThis overlay is from so and so funtoo user. Order a $15/month container today @ funtoo.org
Insert portage structure category & package directories. For example i want to fix apparmor to include the very latest source , i would mkdir -p /var/overlay/local/sys-apps/apparmor then copy the old ebuild i found online (or on my computer) to the directory. /var/overlay/local/sys-apps/apparmor/apparmor-2.8.4.ebuild is where the old ebuild would sit. Copy it to the latest upstream version number. cp apparmor-2.8.4.ebuild apparmor-2.9.2.ebuild then run the ebuild manifest file.
root # mkdir -p /var/overlay/local/cat-egory/package root # mv package-oldversion.ebuild /var/overlay/local/cat-egory/package/package-oldversion.ebuild
- i## cp /var/overlay/local/cat-egory/package/package-oldversion.ebuild /var/overlay/local/cat-egory/package/package-newversion.ebuild
- i## ebuild *.ebuild manifest}}
Add your overlay to make.conf:
/etc/portage/make.conf - Insert the local overlayPORTDIR_OVERLAY="/var/overlay/local"
You're ready to emerge the new version, you don't need to sync, you can make minor changes, then emerge, and if it breaks again you can make more minor changes, and emerge again. Once you're satisfied with the ebuild its time to share your fun goodies.
GIT
make ssh keys and upload them to github or else entering your password will get very old very quick.
root # cd /var/overlay/local root # git init root # git add . root # git commit -m 'First commit' root # git remote add origin git@github.com:666threesixes666/tripsix.git root # git remote set-url origin git@github.com:666threesixes666/tripsix.git root # git remote -v root # git push origin master
If flaws are discovered in your ebuild, you can repair them, and add ebuilds patches or other files with this command:
root # cd /var/overlay/local root # git add . && git commit -m 'updates' && git push origin master
