Introduction
============
This repository contains the Adélie Linux package set. It is used as an
overlay in the Portage system for package building to create the repository
used by Adélie's APK package manager.
Licenses
`````````
As the Adélie Linux project is an open-source Linux distribution, packages
contained in this repository must also be provided under a license recognised
by the OSI_. A separate repository may be provided in the future for certain
non-free components, such as device driver firmware.
.. _OSI: http://opensource.org/licenses/category
Changes
```````
Any changes to this repository - additions, removal, or version bumps - must
be reviewed before being pushed to the master branch. There are no exceptions
to this rule. For security-sensitive updates, contact the Security Team at
sec-bugs@adelielinux.org.
Ebuild Format
=============
This section describes the Ebuild format required for packages in this
repository.
EAPI
````
Any Ebuild present in this repository **must** use EAPI 5. As EAPI 6 is not
yet supported by any publicly released version of the Portage toolkit, it is
not yet acceptable for use in this repository.
Source URIs
```````````
It is recommended that any Ebuild present in this repository use an official
Adélie Linux mirror for any files downloaded (``mirror://adelie/``).
Exceptions will be granted on a case-by-case basis for issues such as file
size or rapid version change.
Comments
````````
It is highly encouraged that you use comments in your Ebuild. This grants
other developers and the Adélie Linux team the same level of understanding
that you have over the package. Any issues found that cause behaviour
deviant from the eclass defaults should have an explanation and/or link to
a problem report (either upstream or on http://bts.adelielinux.org/).
Custom Eclasses
```````````````
If you require a custom Eclass not already present in the base Portage tree
or this repository, please file a problem report on http://bts.adelielinux.org/
with an explanation of what your Eclass will provide. A test suite in the
form of various Ebuilds demonstrating proper behaviour and failure modes will
be greatly appreciated and raise the likelihood of a speedy addition to the
tree. Please do **not** file a pull request containing a new Eclass without
filing a problem report first.

#. Clone your forked repository to your computer.
#. Make your changes.
#. Test your changes to ensure they are correct.
#. Add (or remove) changed files using ``git add`` and ``git rm``.
#. Commit your changes to the tree using the command ``repoman commit``.
#. Visit your forked repository in a Web browser.
#. Choose the *Create Pull Request* button.
#. Review your changes to ensure they are correct, and then submit the form.

Contents
========
This section contains a high-level view of the contents of this repository.
It does not list every package available; it is merely a guide to help you
find what you need.
``profiles``: Configuration
```````````````````````````
The ``profiles`` directory contains special instructions to the Portage++
system to ensure proper build and runtime configuration for packages.
``sys-apps``: System Applications
`````````````````````````````````
Packages in the ``sys-apps`` category provide core system functionality, such
as ``apk-tools`` or ``portage++``.
Usage
=====
This section contains usage information for this repository.
As an overlay
`````````````
This repository can be added as an overlay to any system running Portage or
Portage++. However, please do not add it to a Gentoo computer unless you
intend to use it for developing Adélie. None of the packages here are useful
for a Gentoo computer, and some packages (such as ``baselayout``) may in fact
damage your Gentoo installation if installed from this repository. Please be
careful.
Create a file named ``adelie.conf`` to ``/etc/portage/repos.conf``, and enter
the following text:
::
[adelie]
location = /usr/local/portage-adelie
sync-type = git
sync-uri = https://code.foxkit.us/adelie/packages.git
auto-sync = yes
Run ``emerge --sync`` or ``eix-sync`` to update the package index on your
local system. The packages will then be available to you.
As a repository
```````````````
The Adélie Linux system is preconfigured to use packages in this repository
for APK. No configuration is required.
