This overlay contains curated unmodified Gentoo packages that are part of the CoreOS build and are exact copies of upstream Gentoo packages.
Use src/scripts/update_ebuilds
to fetch the latest copy from Gentoo:
cd ~/trunk/src/scripts
repo start update-foo ../third-party/portage-stable
./update_ebuilds --commit app-fun/foo
Note: update_ebuilds
can fetch from either Gentoo's anonymous CVS or
Rsync services, both of which will ban users making excessive requests.
If you have a lot of related packages to update or just aren't quite
sure what you are getting into please pull down a local copy to work
from:
rsync -rtlv rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage ~/
./update_ebuilds --commit --portage ~/gentoo-portage app-fun/foo
Licensing information can be found in the respective files, so consult them directly. Most ebuilds are licensed under the GPL version 2.
