Try this sequence: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
1. Start xterm. |
| 20 |
2. type "cd /usr/portage/x11-terms/gnome-terminal". |
| 21 |
3. "nano files/gconf.patch". |
| 22 |
4. Switch to browser, select the lines of the patch (everything from |
| 23 |
below the equal-sign-line to html horizontal separator). |
| 24 |
5. Middle-click xterm window should paste the patch there. |
| 25 |
6. Switch to xterm, Ctrl+O, Enter (Save). Ctrl+X (Quit). |
| 26 |
7. "nano gnome-terminal-XXX.ebuild" where XXX is desired version number. |
| 27 |
8. Put the following line inside braces below "gnome_src_unpack" line: |
| 28 |
epatch "${FILESDIR}/gconf.patch" |
| 29 |
9. Ctrl+O, Enter (Save). Ctrl+X (Quit). |
| 30 |
10. "repoman manifest". |
| 31 |
11. "emerge gnome-terminal" |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Congrats, you've created your own patched ebuild ;) |
| 34 |
Homework: put it into local overlay so it won't be wiped on sync. |
