Preparing
Warning
These instructions assume that your /etc/portage/package.{unmask,use} locations are directories.
First, sync the tree if you haven't recently as you need access to a file in the tree:
root # emerge --sync
Now, create a symlink to the GNOME 3.14 mask file, reversijng it in the process:
root # cd /etc/portage/package.unmask root # ln -s /var/portage/tree/funtoo/profiles/package.mask/funtoo-gnome .
Then to simplify matters, enable the gnome mix-in:
root # eselect profile list root ##g##Currently available mix-ins profiles: [11] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/audio [12] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/console-extras [13] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/dvd [14] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/gnome [15] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/kde [16] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/mate [17] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/media [18] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/print [19] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/python3-only [20] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/rhel5-compat [21] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/server-db [22] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/server-mail [23] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/server-web [24] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/X [25] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/xfce [26] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/vmware-guest [27] funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/mix-ins/hardened
root # eselect profile add 14
Finally, add the relevant section to your /etc/portage/package.use/funtoo-gnome file:
gnome-light (without mix-in)
gnome-extra/evolution-data-server gtk x11-libs/libxcb xkb media-libs/cogl gles2
gnome (with mix-in)
