This is a ports tree for MacPorts. This ports tree contains ports that may not yet be ready for inclusion into the official macports-ports tree, but that are published here first to try them out.

Consider all of these ports to be experimental!

Setup Instructions

You can install this ports tree as a local overlay for the official macports-ports tree.

The details are described in the MacPorts Guide, but here is a quick start:

Clone the repository

$ cd $HOME
$ git clone https://github.com/raimue/raimue-ports.git

Find the correct URL

$ echo file://$HOME/raimue-ports
file:///Users/username/raimue-ports

Add this URL to sources.conf

Edit the sources.conf of your MacPorts installation:

$ sudo vim /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf

Add the URL to the new ports tree above the official ports tree:

file:///Users/username/raimue-ports
rsync://rsync.macports.org/macports/release/tarballs/ports.tar [default]

Generate PortIndex

Run a port sync action to generate the PortIndex for the new ports tree. This will also pull updates with git.

$ sudo port -v sync
--->  Updating the ports tree
Synchronizing local ports tree from file:///Users/username/raimue-ports
...

Now you can install any of the ports contained in this ports tree the usual way.
