When the hell is love-sources going to show up in the portage tree automagically ??? 8O

I got love-sources working via all the previous GREAT posts ;-)
It would just be nice to:
Code:
# emerge love-sources

Or
Code:
# emerge development-love-sources


Without having to go manually grab all this stuff and mess with ebuilds...I like it simple :D

;)

There is a multi-page thread on this exact topic. Please add any comments to that one. It has been discussed to death and the short-version is that love-sources is too unstable to be in portage.

Please don't put any opinions on that comment here, leave it for the correct thread :roll:

Now what's so difficult about setting up your portdir_overlay, download the ebuild and do emerge --digest love-sources??

Have a bit of a search for the scripts that a few people have made that automatically, download and digest love sources, tis not a hard script to write, and should be easy to find.

I've noticed that I can't get as high a resolution framebuffer with love-sources, does it need a patch? also I'd loe to use reiser4 but im not sure the best way to do it, new install, or just make new partition and move everything over?

An easy way to get the latest love-sources as well as lots of other stuff is to use overlays for portage. If you're interested check out:

http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Overlays

The gentoo.de overlay contains all the love-sources as well as nitro-sources.
