winny Portage Overlay
Just some ebuilds that aren’t working elsewhere, or are not available elsewhere. Expect little to no testing.
Add with:
layman -a winnyHow to use an overlay with “little to no testing”?
After adding the overlay with layman -a winny you should mask all
ebuilds, and only unmask what you intend on using. I personally use
this technique for all unofficial overlays.
/etc/portage/package.mask/overlays
*/*::winny
/etc/portage/package.unmask/overlays
net-misc/sacc::winny media-sound/mpvc::winny
Alternative: emerge -a category/name by default will ask if you
would like to unmask all necessary package atoms to install
category/name. Use dispatch-conf as usual ;). You may want to edit
the resulting unmasks to not specify package atom versions.
Some ebuilds in this overlay
net-im/ripcord-bin
The Ripcord chat client for Discord and Slack.
net-im/chatty-bin
Chat client for Twitch.
media-fonts/go
One of the best fonts for programming.
net-misc/sacc
Simple gopher client.
x11-misc/xbanish
Banish the mouse when not in use.
dev-scheme/racket
I’m a big fan of Racket, so I always want the latest release.
And many more…
Ebuilds will be removed from tree as I get stuff merged back into the original ebuild repositories.
