This solution looks promising. I don't like the "perl -MCPAN ..." suggestion
earlier+
because it installs files outside of the control of portage.
calling
*#* g-cpan -g Locale::Language
gives me ** *The option you have chosen isn't supported without a configured
overlay.
The homepage does not give a clue on how the overlay have to be specified.
I have a local repository defined as in
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Portage/
CustomTree#Defining_a_custom_repository
You have to set PORTDIR_OVERLAY explicitly. A hint on the homepage would be
nice.
Maybe the tool can be redesigned to use the directory /etc/portage/repos.conf
instead.
After that it works well.
Thanks for your help.
kind regards
Petric
