src_prepare Gentoo overlay

This is the overlay of our Matrix group where we talk about topics related to Gentoo (development, maintainance, support, communities and more).

WARNING: Do not expect high quality ebuilds! While we do the best we can, most of us are still learning.

A quick guide on how to test ebuilds will follow.

Why create this overlay?

Mostly to have fun.

Adding the overlay
