An overlay for Gentoo, with various packages used and/or maintained by 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.
If you are looking for the neuroscience software packages maintained by TheChymera, use the Gentoo Science instead.
As per the current Portage specifications, 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 download our .conf
file to the apropriate system directory (root access will likely be required):
mkdir /etc/portage/repos.conf
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TheChymera/overlay/master/metadata/chymeric.conf -O /etc/portage/repos.conf/chymeric
Afterwards, simply run emerge --sync
, and Portage should seamlessly make all our ebuilds availabl.
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.
