I never used ltsp so take what I say with a grain of salt.... |

Look around the old code is out there. Find an old version that works |
11 |
and get that working. Then go to the ltsp upstream development site |
12 |
and get the latest stable release. Create your own ebuild so you not |
13 |
dependant for the devs to maintain what you like. Also, look around at |
14 |
the other gentoo-derivate OS and see if they have some ltsp hack of |
15 |
an ebuild lying around. The gentoo attics is your friend [2] |
16 |
|
17 |
You can usually find a way to build/install it, without using a gentoo |
18 |
ebuild, but that is not the preferred method. |
19 |
https://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/ltsp.xml:: has been removed, so the devs think |
20 |
it is useless or nobody wants to maintain it. If you really like that |
21 |
package, be the proxy maintainer once you repair/upgrade the associated |
22 |
ebuilds. Seen the proxy-maintainer project in the gentoo wiki for more detail. |
