I've had my own overlay for a while, maintaining my own versions of |
| 2 |
plex, new relic and even some removed packages that I use. |
| 3 |
Until the the other day I was just making sure they install and work for |
| 4 |
myself, I have now discovered repoman and have several issues which |
| 5 |
actually need tidying up. |
| 6 |
On top of this I store this in a private gitlab install so am now |
| 7 |
looking at CI/CD to automate the testing, but at this point I'm at the |
| 8 |
point of creating my own gentoo docker image with various things |
| 9 |
pre-installed to start serious check/test/install of new ebuilds. |
