Created attachment 895013 [details, diff] live ebuild patch A soft fork of alacritty adds support for sixel It's tracked through an open [PR](https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/pull/4763) It doesn't provide version tags even though it follows alacritty's updates. This patch introduces a sixel USE flag that enables switching the source repository used for the live ebuild. It also introduces the doc USE flag to make the doc install optional.
I'm not interested in maintaining things like that. First of all, there's no guarantee that they will be up to date with upstream, and keep in mind that this use flag could only work for certain releases. I'd suggest just to package the _forked_ version in guru, and treat it as a _fork_ and not alacritty, because it's not. Not doing a clear distinction that this is an unofficial patch, will just confuse users and waste maintainers time because they were troubleshooting the _wrong_ version. Besides, folks who really want to, could just use portage's builtin patches functionality and achieve the same already, given that they want to apply unofficial patch.
