Main
====

This is my private and unofficial overlay_ for Gentoo/Linux.
There will be different ebuilds from different sources, hopefully only temporary
before submitting to the `main Gentoo bugtracker`_ resp. to the `main portage tree`_.

Setup and synchronisation
=========================

There are several possible ways of adding this overlay:

Adding the overlay manually
---------------------------

You can clone the repository and create `/etc/portage/repos.conf/holgersson-overlay.conf`
with the following contents:

.. ini

   [holgersson-overlay]
   priority = 50
   location = /path/to/local/holgersson-overlay
   sync-type = git
   sync-uri = https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/holgersson-overlay.git

Using eselect-repository
------------------------

Run eselect repository:

.. sh
   $ eselect repository enable holgersson-overlay


Using layman
------------

Run layman from `app-portage/layman`:

.. sh
   $ layman -a holgersson-overlay

and optional for global updates:

.. sh
   $ layman -S
   $ emerge --sync

You might want to set `USE="sync-plugin-portage"` for layman, too.
