This is the overlay of our Matrix group where we talk about topics related to Gentoo (development, maintainance, support, communities and more).
WARNING: Do not expect high quality ebuilds! While we do the best we can, most of us are still learning. Read WARNING.md for more information.
Mostly to have fun.
src_prepare overlay is based on the concept of the GURU project: to create a repository maintained collaboratively by Gentoo users, for Gentoo users.
Despite being based on the concept of the GURU project, src_prepare has different goals in mind:
- main git repository is hosted on GitLab, with mirrors set to GitHub and Codeberg;
- easier for one to get access to the
masterbranch; - main contact with the src_prepare project is via [matrix];
- more freedom in creating ebuilds;
- no requirement for GPG keys;
- no requirement for private info.
The src_prepare project doesn't want to overtake or compete with the GURU project. The GURU project is aimed on professionalism and quality, whereas src_prepare is aimed on openness and ease of access.
