Here's what it means:
| Code: |
cd /etc/portage/package.keywords
|
Change to this directory. If you don't have this directory, do, as root:
| Code: |
mkdir /etc/portage/package.keywords
|
Then cd to /etc/portage/package.keywords
| Code: |
ln -s /path/to/overlay/kde/Documentation/package.keywords/kde-live.keywords .
|
This assumes you have installed the overlay using layman. If you haven't done this, you should re-read the guide. If you have, then the above command creates a symbolic link to /etc/portage/package.keywords. I think this command should be written in the guide as
| Code: |
ln -s /path/to/overlay/kde/Documentation/package.keywords/kde-live.keywords /etc/portage/package.keywords
|
for clarity. /path/to/overlay is what it looks like - the path to the kde overlay you've installed. Usually it's something like /usr/local/portage/layman/kde and so on.
| Code: |
emerge -av kdebase-startkde:live
|
This is the moment you've been waiting for: installing KDE via the overlay. Just execute this command. If it fails for any reason, you missed something (post here the error message so we can tell you what you missed).
