Hi folks,
I want to try out Porthole http://porthole.sourceforge.net/, I've downloaded the ebuild file but I'm stumped on what to do next?
I've looked for instructions on what to do, but nothing seems to make any sense? Is it as simple and executing it from command line (./porthole*.ebuild)? |

Looking at the site, I'm supposed to add something to
| Code: | | /etc/portage/package.keywords |
But what am I adding? |
