My personal overlay for gentoo.
Here I place ebuilds that I use but that aren't proposed to or accepted by gentoo package maintainers. Use at Your own risk – i cannot test ebuilds against all use flag combinations or architectures.
DEPRECATION WARNING (2019-05-04): As I have switched from Gentoo to NixOS, this is no longer maintained, and won't probably be in the near future.
You can either install the overlay via the repos.conf method or use layman.
Put a file like this in /etc/portage/repos.conf/jorsn.conf:
[jorsn]
location = <some-path>/jorsn
sync-type = git
sync-uri = https://github.com/jorsn/jorsn-gentoo.git
auto-sync = yes
Then, sync your portage tree:
$ emaint sync -r jorsn
Then, add the overlay to layman and sync:
$ layman -o https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jorsn/jorsn-gentoo/master/jorsn.xml -f -a jorsn
$ emaint sync -r jorsn
