Thanks to layman, it is very easy to install Spectrum2.
To use other repositories, please firt installing layman:
# emerge layman
Please make sure the **git** USE-Flag ist set.
Now, you need to add the overlay by creating a new file, let's call it `/etc/layman/overlays/spectrum2.xml`:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE repositories SYSTEM "/dtd/repositories.dtd">
<repositories xmlns="" version="1.0">
<repo quality="experimental" status="unofficial">
<name><![CDATA[spectrum2]]></name>
<description><![CDATA[Spectrum 2 and others]]></description>
<homepage>http://pubgit.rpgfiction.net/?p=portage-overlay.git;a=summary</homepage>
<owner>
<email>chain@rpgfiction.net</email>
<name><![CDATA[chain (Richard H.)]]></name>
</owner>
<source type="git">git://pubgit.rpgfiction.net/portage-overlay.git</source>
<feed></feed>
</repo>
</repositories>
Now you need to add the second line to `/etc/layman/layman.cfg`:
overlays : http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/overlays/repositories.xml
file:///etc/layman/overlays/spectrum2.xml
All done! Add the overlay by issuing
# layman -S
# layman -a spectrum2
## Install spectrum2
# emerge spectrum:2 --autounmask-write -a
# dispatch-conf
(or)
# etc-update
# emerge spectrum:2 -a
This will tell portage to unmask the needed packages, all dependencies should be pulled in automatically, you can change the needed features by the USE-Flags provided.
