# Chymeric Gentoo Overlay
|
|
|
|
An overlay for Gentoo, with various packages used and/or maintained by [TheChymera](https://github.com/TheChymera).
|
|
A number of the ebuilds available from this overlay are regularly copied from external sources (see respective commit mesages), and thus have a different maintainer.
|
|
The repository structure is somewhat based on that of the *gentoo science overlay*, and we also use thin manifests.
|
|
|
|
If you are looking for the neuroscience software packages maintained by [TheChymera](https://github.com/TheChymera), use the [NeuroGentoo overlay](https://github.com/TheChymera/neurogentoo) instead.
|
|
|
|
##Install
|
|
|
|
As per the [current Portage specifications](https://dev.gentoo.org/~zmedico/portage/doc/man/portage.5.html), overlays should be managed via `/etc/portage/repos.conf/`.
|
|
To enable this overlay make sure you are using a recent Portage version (at least `2.2.14`), and create an `/etc/portage/repos.conf/chymeric` file containing precisely:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[chymeric]
|
|
location = /usr/local/portage/chymeric
|
|
sync-type = git
|
|
sync-uri = https://github.com/TheChymera/gentoo-overlay.git
|
|
priority=8889
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Afterwards, simply run `emerge --sync`, and Portage should seamlessly make all our ebuilds available.
|
|
Many of our packages are available as live (`*-9999`) ebuilds, and also need manual unmasking in `/etc/portage/package.accept_keywords` before they can be emerged.
