profiles: last-rite hyprland suite This suite of packages is currently best placed in an overlay/external repository where users can more easily contribute. The ecosystem moves quickly and users expect even the live ebuilds to be updated apace. The rate of change as well as new packages requiring review places a heavy combined with users (not unreasonably) wanting fresh versions of the software places strain on the proxy-maint team. Pressure being put on proxied maintainers to create and quickly have PRs merged doesn't facilitate the level of testing for ::gentoo either. An unofficial 'hyproverlay' repository has been created at https://codeberg.org/hyproverlay/hyproverlay.git for communal maintenance of these packages as well as several new (unpackaged in ::gentoo) dependencies. It can be enabled with: $ emerge -an app-eselect/eselect-repository $ eselect repository enable hyproverlay $ emerge --sync Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/956598 Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/958036 Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/958992 Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/962536 Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/962792 Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/963315 Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/963948 Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/965828 Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/967291 Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/967641 Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/968609 Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/969574 Closes: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/44644 Closes: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/45126 Closes: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/45537 Signed-off-by: Sam James <sam <AT> gentoo.org> profiles/package.mask | 31 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 31 insertions(+) diff --git a/profiles/package.mask b/profiles/package.mask index 019c0624136c..114d37562109 100644 --- a/profiles/package.mask +++ b/profiles/package.mask @@ -36,6 +36,37 @@ #--- END OF EXAMPLES --- +# Sam James <[email protected]> (2026-02-09) +# This suite of packages is currently best placed in an overlay/external +# repository where users can more easily contribute.
