kodi-overlay is a portage overlay for Gentoo Linux which provides modified and unofficial ebuilds for a KODI appliance.
There are two easy ways to get the overlay onto your system:
-
emerge -av git -
mkdir /usr/local/portage -
cd /usr/local/portage -
git clone git://github.com/frace/kodi-overlay.git -
Modify
/etc/make.conf:PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage/kodi-overlay/"
If you don't know what layman is then please read the documentation first.
-
emerge -av layman -
Modify
/etc/layman/layman.cfg:overlays : https://api.gentoo.org/overlays/repositories.xml https://raw.github.com/frace/kodi-overlay/master/repositories.xml -
layman --list -
layman --add kodi-overlay
Ebuilds could become masked [M] if
- they are unmaintained.
- they are not in sync with upstream ebuilds.
- they are in a very unstable state.
You are welcome to report bugs at the project bugtracker at github.com. If you create a KODI related pull request then please make sure to report the issue also at the official Gentoo Linux bugtracker and reference it here since we want to stay in sync as much as possible with the official ebuild. Finally our goal is to help to improve the official KODI ebuild and to help to fix bugs.
