A Gentoo Portage Overlay
This is a package repository for Gentoo Linux which
contains a few useful things.
It is in the official list of gentoo "overlay" package repositories, so all you need to do is
layman -a timboudreau
In more detail:
- You need to be running Gentoo Linux or one of its derivatives such as Funtoo.
- If you don't have layman installed already, run
emerge layman (and make sure your make.conf sources '/var/lib/layman/make.conf'
- Run
layman add timboudreau
- Run
eix-sync to add it to your local package database (or emerge --update if you don't use eix)
Some of the software included here:
- syncthing - like dropbox, but between your machines - be your own personal cloud
- etcd - a high-availability key/value thingy similar to
Zookeeper but hopefully less awful
- flatbuffers - Google's copy-free data
serialization library for Java and C
- statsd - Etsy's statsd, a thing for collecting statistics and
sending them to things that can graph them or do other useful things with them
- Various fonts, mostly monospaced coding ones
