eit-inject(1) ============= :man source: eit {eitversion} :man manual: eit {eitversion} NAME ---- eit-inject - inject package files into repository SYNOPSIS -------- eit inject [-h] [--to ] [ ...] INTRODUCTION ------------ A Source Package Manager (Portage, for example) can produce tarballs containing package metadata and the actual content. If that's the case, Entropy Server can scan the file and extract all the information needed to add the same to its repository. In the Entropy world, this is called "*package injection*", meaning that you're actually "injecting" a SPM package into an Entropy repository. Injected packages are "special", because they're not mapped to an installed SPM package on the currently running system (or chroot). This has the side effect of Entropy not being automatically able to detect library breakages, for example. So please limit the amount of *injected* packages in your repositories as much as you can. OPTIONS ------- "eit inject" supports the following options which alters its behaviour. POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ **:: package paths OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *--help*:: show this help message and exit *--to*=:: inject into given repository AUTHORS ------- Eit has been accidentally prototyped during a rainy Sunday by Fabio Erculiani who was looking for innovative ways of handling package bumps in Sabayon Entropy repositories. A few months later, Eit saw the light. REPORTING BUGS -------------- Report bugs to https://bugs.sabayon.org or directly to the author at lxnay@sabayon.org. SEE ALSO -------- eit(1)
