OK, thanks, I will try this and see what happens. From: Oliver Freyermuth via Shorewall-users <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, September 23, 2026 8:37 AM To: Shorewall Users <[email protected]> Cc: Oliver Freyermuth <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Shorewall-users] cannot emerge shorewall ebuild Hi, this is not really a shorewall or shorewall-nft question, but rather a Gentoo question, so it might be better suited for the Gentoo forums. Some advice: Here's the direct link to the Gentoo handbook on how to create a local repository: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Portage/CustomTree#Creating_a_custom_ebuild_repository This will also create the necessary masters attribute. For using this repository, please also take note of the necessary steps when adding an ebuild there: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Creating_an_ebuild_repository#Adding_an_ebuild_to_an_ebuild_repository This should be sufficient to get you going. Of course, it might be useful to have shorewall-nft inside an overlay (e.g. Gentoo GURU) at some point in case someone has the time to maintain it there, then adding this overlay will be sufficient without creating a local repository.

I downloaded the shorewall nft from github, but emerge would not copy the ebuild when I put it in /usr/local/portage. I am obviously missing a step, it wants a repository or something, just copying the ebuild I get the message reposity usr is missing masters attribute, so I am stuck. I guess I need to put it somewhere else, but where?
