Local overlay woes

[dkg]

I wanted to try out the latest version of darktable, v2.4.0.  So, I downloaded the gentoo ebuild, put in in my local overlay, and ran 'ebuild darktable-2.4.0.ebuild manifest'.  Then I ran 'emerge -u darktable'.  But I got the following error:

>>> Preparing source in /var/tmp/portage/media-gfx/darktable-2.4.0/work/darktable-2.4.0 ...

What have I done wrong?

actually the easiest way is to switch to media-kit/1.2-prime there is darktable there in 2.4.0 version.
 

ego config set kits media-kit 1.2-prime
ego sync
emerge -av darktable

you have to download also the files directory as the ebuild is using the files from there :) as the error message states.

And how do I do that?

[palica]

the same way you got your ebuild from gentoo. :)

Got it.  I guess I was expecting some command to do this.  It seems strange as I've been using gentoo/funtoo for so long, but I must have never downloaded an ebuild that needed a patch before.  Thanks.
