Hi, i tested a lot of configurations on a cloned gentoo system but nothing works so good as infinality does for me.

Best Regards

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Custom_ebuild_repository

You'll need about three or four packages in your overlay, one of them an eselect
Code:
app-eselect/eselect-infinality::oldgentoo
app-eselect/eselect-lcdfilter::oldgentoo
lxde-base/lxappearance::oldgentoo
media-libs/fontconfig-ultimate::oldgentoo
media-libs/fontconfig-infinality::oldgentoo
"oldgentoo" is the name of mine.
The hard part is creating the overlay and .repo The ebuilds can just be copied, along with files .xml etc. from portage before they disappear. It's a harder job after they disappear.
