Introduction +--------------------------------------- +This directory contains two ebuilds for UltraStar Deluxe +- ultrastardx-9999.ebuild: a live ebuild using SVN sources +- ultrastardx-1.1_alpha.ebuild: a snapshot ebuild that might be appended to the official portage someday (Note: at the moment there is no source snapshot for USDX so this will not work) + +--------------------------------------- +2. Create a portage overlay +--------------------------------------- +If you want to try one of the ebuilds (at the moment only use the live ebuild) you must have a portage overlay. +In case you do not have one or do not know what it is, see + http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Create_an_Updated_Ebuild + +Normally this can be achieved (as root) with: + mkdir -p /usr/local/portage && echo 'PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage"' >> /etc/make.conf + +--------------------------------------- +3. Add the USDX ebuild to your overlay +--------------------------------------- +First create the directory structure (as root): + mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/games-arcade/ultrastardx + +Now copy the (live) ebuild to the new directory: + cp ultrastardx-9999.ebuild /usr/local/portage/games-arcade/ultrastardx + +Go to the overlay directory: + cd /usr/local/portage/games-arcade/ultrastardx + +Create a manifest: + ebuild ultrastardx-9999.ebuild manifest + +And you are done! + +Now you can emerge USDX with: + emerge ultrastardx -av |
