 |
|
I have my own overlay at a github repo.
I'm trying to do a ebuild. I consider it's done. Now I'm trying to do MANIFEST file
By the guide at https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Basic_guide_to_write_Gentoo_Ebuilds#Demonstration_by_example
| Quote: |
It is possible to test fetching and unpacking the upstream sources by the new ebuild, using the ebuild command:
| Code: |
user $ GENTOO_MIRRORS="" ebuild ./scrub-2.6.1.ebuild manifest clean unpack
|
|
So, I'm trying to do that as a user which is not root. My latest attempt at which I stuck:
| Code: | | DISTDIR=/home/paxu/data/code/experiments/distfiles PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/home/paxu/data/code/experiments/tmpdir" GENTOO_MIRRORS="" ebuild ./dev-cpp/boost/boost-1.87.0.ebuild manifest clean unpack |
| Code: | Appending /home/paxu/data/code/experiments/ex_repo to PORTDIR_OVERLAY...

Maybe there's a better article or I don't understand something? |
