image/ebuildtool.png

A simple tool that helps developing and debugging ebuilds. Ebuilds are used by the gentoo linux meta distribution to install programs. It is just a python script and a man page. Download the newest version ebuildtool-*.*.tar.gz

Gentoo Linux installation

  • Install my linursoverlay
  • Since it is not an official ebuild you must unmask it. Type: echo "app-portage/ebuildtool ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
  • Type emerge ebuildtool to install it
  • Type emerge --unmerge ebuildtool to remove it
