Getting Started

Gentoo Utils must be compiled from source currently. See the compiling from source section for more information.

Development   development contributing

There are two main avenues for development:

• compiling normally using packages via portage
• using the podman container

Development without using a podman container

Install Build Prerequisites

• dev-lang/rust-bin-9999
• llvm-core/clang
• llvm-core/lld
• sys-process/parallel (Needed for check.sh)
• dev-build/meson

Install build deps:

emerge -a dev-lang/rust-bin-9999 \
    llvm-core/clang \
    llvm-core/lld \
    sys-process/parallel

Compiling this project currently requires using a patched meson. Install patched meson:

EGIT_OVERRIDE_REPO_MESONBUILD_MESON=https://jturnerusa.dev/cgit/meson emerge -a =dev-build/meson-9999::gentoo

Development using a podman container

The podman image comes with all the tools required to compile gentoo-utils.

Clone the repo

git clone https://git.epenguin.net/gentoo-utils/gentoo-utils.git
cd gentoo-utils

Run the check script:

podman run --rm --userns=keep-id -v $PWD:/workspace git.epenguin.net/gentoo-utils/gentoo-utils:latest ./check.sh
