MATE-DESKTOP OVERLAY For Gentoo
===============================
*IMPORTANT NOTE*: While this repository is here, I am doing also my best
contribute changes to the official gentoo repository.
This is an [overlay][1] intended to be used in Gentoo.
I have done my best to adhere to Gentoo's best practices. However, there
are a few things you should consider before you use this overlay:
* I did my best to test all ebuilds (with `repoman` and with installing
them on my machine), but I could not possibly test all use flags.
- I don't use systemd, hence I didn't test it
If you find this work useful, you can do one or more of the following:
* Install and use these packages. Give me usefull feedback.
* Star this repository.
* Tweeter me with a thank you.
* Donate me a humlbe sum of 2-5€.
(Donations should go to oz dot tiram _at_ gmail dot com via Paypal),
I'll mention you here for supporting my work.
## Goodies
* I added some other packages here which are not officially mate. These are packages which I see fit,
and that belong IMHO to the mate eco-system (for example the mate-dock-applet).
## Contributing ebuilds
* I welcome anyone who wants to contribute, but ...
* It's very hard to review a commit with many files changes. So, if you
bump the version, please make a commit for each ebuild, instead of a large
commit for all updated files.
* Properly updating an ebuild isn't only changing the version number. One good
way to notice changes in the build configuration is to look for changes in
the file `configure.ac`. Check out the repository of the package you want
to bump and do the following:
```
$ git diff v1.(N)..(N+1) -- configure.ac
```
where `N+1` is the version you want to bump to and `N` is the previous version.
Update the ebuild if the build requirements have changed.
