Hi there!
With the GSoC deadline behind me I took the liberty to put a few hours
into something Funtoo-related that I've been wanting to do before.
Funtoo's tree is a melting pot currently combining ebuilds from the
trees (from [1])
- gentoo
- mpd
- perl-experimental
- sunrise
with
- Funtoo-only ebuilds
- version bumps
>From a Funtoo perspective it makes sense to keep it all in one
repository. Still, wouldn't it be nice to have ..
an overlay with stuff that's available in Funtoo only?
I've been working on a tool ("funtoo-ripper" [2], written in Python) to
automate dissection and keeping a dedicated overlay ("pure-funtoo" [3])
in sync. Commits are done automatically, triggering and pushing is
manual at the moment.
A nice pure-funtoo summary will be auto-added to
http://gentoo-overlays.zugaina.org/pure-funtoo
soon I guess.
I hope this overlay enables collaboration on a level that was
technically difficult so far. I'm curious how it turns out.
So long,
Sebastian
