Note that ebuilds for stable release of indilib drivers (currently 1.8.3) are keyworded unstable (~amd64, ~x86 specifically) and live source ebuilds are all masked by package.mask. You will have to unmask them during -installation (use emerge with --autounmask-write option). See official docs if you do not know this means exactly. - -7. You can use provided init script in /etc/init.d/indiserver and respective configuration file in /etc/conf.d/indiserver to set indiserver to start automatically. - -I have tested all the drivers and they compile OK at least on amd64 and arm. Whether they work with your device is up to you to discover :-) I will try to maintain ebuilds as the time goes by and my spare time allows me. - -8. Known problems: - -Firmware for SBIG cameras (sci-libs/libsbig) won't cross emerge if the host machine belongs to different ARCH. - -Firmware for QHY cameras (sci-libs/libqhy) won't cross emerge for armv7a CHOST, because provided binary is only for armv6, which confuses compiler. It can be emerged on RaspberryPi directly - -9. The overlay also includes ebuild for sci-astronomy/open-phd-guiding (version 2 directly from git). - -I hope someone will find this useful and please report any bugs with the ebuilds or compilation failures to the forum: http://indilib.org/forum/general/566-my-gentoo-overlay-with-indilib-3rd-party-drivers |
