HOWTO: gtk-engines-kde4

First I used equo to take care of the dependencies

    equo install dev-util/pkgconfig dev-libs/xmlrpc-c dev-util/cmake x11-misc/util-macros x11-proto/xf86vidmodeproto

than for 3rd party ebuilds you need to make some changes first

edit the /etc/make.conf file and make sure you have the line

    PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage"

than we need to make our local overlay

    mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/x11-themes/gtk-engines-kde4

than we change to that directory

    cd /usr/local/portage/x11-themes/gtk-engines-kde4

than we make the ebuild

    nano gtk-engines-kde4-0.8.ebuild 

copy and paste the following contents for ebuild - make sure you get it all - use Ctrl x to save and close

    src_compile() {
       cmake . || die "cmake failed"

    }
    pkg_postinst() {
       elog "If you want additional themes just download"
       elog "http://betta.h.com.ua/no-site/qt4.tar.gz"
       elog "and put into ~/.themes/"
    }

than download the file to your home directory

    http://kde-apps.org/CONTENT/content-files/74689-gtk-kde4v0.8.tar.gz

now we move it to where we need it

    cp /home/yourusernamegoeshere/74689-gtk-kde4v0.8.tar.gz /usr/portage/distfiles/ 

example

    cp /home/wolfden/downloads/74689-gtk-kde4v0.8.tar.gz /usr/portage/distfiles/

now we can digest our ebuild and it will be able to install - you should still be in the /usr/local/portage/x11-themes/gtk-engines-kde4/ directory since we didn't move so you can do

   ebuild gtk-engines-kde4-0.8.ebuild digest

now install it

    emerge gtk-engines-kde4
