First create the directory x11-misc/pypanel in your portage overlay.

If you don't have a portage overlay add this to your /etc/make.conf:
PORTAGE_OVERLAY=/usr/local/portage

Next, as root execute the following commands:

Code:
# mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/x11-misc/pypanel
# cd /usr/local/portage/x11-misc/pypanel
# wget http://www.mizzou.edu/~brtqk3/pypanel/pypanel-2.2.ebuild
# mkdir files
# cd files
# wget http://www.mizzou.edu/~brtqk3/pypanel/ppmodule.patch
# wget http://www.mizzou.edu/~brtqk3/pypanel/pypanel.patch
# cd ..
# ebuild pypanel-2.2.ebuild digest
# emerge -av pypanel


If you already had a portage overlay modify the first two lines to fit your overlay.

Add "pypanel &" to the top of your .xinitrc if you would like it to start w/ your WM. Thats all there is to it.

If I've left anything out, or this doesn't work for you please let me know.

-Bryce

I haven't tried this yet, but I was wondering How much resources are used on pypanel. From what I've heard each arch has somesort of hogging of the cpu/mem.

Also, Thanks for links to the ebuild and patches.

Ok so there seems to be some contridition in the ebuild when i try to emerge after. Well if i wget the patches, it says "security alert: items found that are not listed in the digest", then if i remove them and try to emerge it it complains because its looking for the patches and they arent there.

Sorry about that, I wrote bad instructions. The patches need to be there before the digest. If you wget the patches then digest it should go fine.
