If the sources are in regular old git, the main changes are to replace SRC_URI with EGIT_REPO_URI and to inherit git-2. Here's one of mine I slapped together: EAPI=5 inherit eutils user git-2 python-single-r1 EGIT_REPO_URI="https://github.com/SiCKRAGETV/SickRage.git"; DESCRIPTION="SickRage - Searches TheTVDB for TV shows" HOMEPAGE="http://www.sickrage.tv/"; LICENSE="GPL-3" # only SLOT="0" KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~x86" IUSE="" The rest of the ebuild is completely stock standard stuff so I omitted it for clarity. You may need to rm a bunch of stuff in src_install() that comes with the git repo and you don't want to be merged. -- Alan McKinnon [email protected]
