Gentoo ebuild

[CastixGitHub]

Hello

I published some ebuild here

Consider it experimental. Also consider these are my first ebuilds.

I'd like to move the repo to this github org, if it makes any sense.

Thanks
castix

Note

When skia is built with clang as suggested, you can only see a blank screen on ladybird

Unlikely that your repo will be moved to this org, as packaging in the pre-alpha stage is discouraged.

Aside from that, I see that it doesn't just build ladybird, but also seems to make many patches which are usually not required.

That's just fine :)

patches usually not required

can you be more specific?

My point is not to get a binary release

It's to allow gentoo users willing to contibute to ladybird easier:

• dependencies already identified and added where missing (simdutf (fastbase64), skia)
• grab the repo, change the git url with your fork
• launch ebuild /path/...ebuild compile until done
• it gets patched just locally so once the feature is ready can be shared back (if you had to patch everything by hand instead you would need to cherry pick hunks each time)

the patches are mainly to avoid vcpkgs or due to skia polluting the environment not being namespaced best example
