GENTOO Vdr ebuilds

Some of the VDR ebuilds have been added to the portage tree of [1], but the main part of them is in the german CVS of Gentoo.de.

If you want to use portage for the VDR Ebuilds, you can use the PORTAGE_OVERLAY functionality by following the steps below:

For updating the ebuilds you will use gensync from the gentoolkit-dev package:

emerge gentoolkit-dev

mkdir -p /usr/local/gentoo-de

In /etc/gensync/gentoo-de.syncsource write

id="gentoo-de"
description="gentoo.de Portage Overlay"
rsync="rsync://rsync16.de.gentoo.org/gentoo-de-ebuilds"
# mirror is the none with all VDR ebuilds!!!
# overlay="/my/absolute/path"
overlay="/usr/local/gentoo-de"

Now you can download our Ebuilds by means of gensync, and later also with the same command to keep them up to date.

gensync gentoo-de

Change the PORTDIR_OVERLAY Variable in /etc/make.conf:

PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/gentoo-de"
