I made an ebuild should I release it somewhere

petu

Hey, I made an ebuild for kfiresaver, see: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=2631

Can I upload my ebuild to somewhere? I mean is there something like ftp://ftp.redhat.com where users can upload their selfbuild rpm packages.

You need to post it to a bug on https://bugs.gentoo.org. Create a new bug named "kfiresaver ebuild" or something and attach the files (ebuild and digest) to it.

I believe the bugs homepage has detailed steps for submitting ebuilds.

You could try the big honking link labeled 'How to submit ebuilds' on the front page. :wink:

lol.

Although, in petu's defense, the link is neither big nor honking. It is in smaller-than-normal text and you have to scroll down a little bit under the "Developer Resources" header.

But, yes, a survey of the available documentation on the front page would have turned this gem up.
