I am removing net-im/beeper-appimage from this overlay, including its automatic update workflow. I recommend installing Beeper as a per-user Flatpak from FlatPark instead.

FlatPark's Beeper package is community-maintained, not an official Automattic Flatpak. Its application ID is com.automattic.Beeper: https://flatpark.org/apps/com.automattic.Beeper/

Add FlatPark explicitly with the following settings so it is not enumerated in ordinary app listings or used for dependency resolution:

  flatpak --user remote-add \
    --if-not-exists \
    --no-enumerate \
    --no-use-for-deps \
    flatpark \
    https://dl.flatpark.org/flatpark.flatpakrepo

Install Beeper by explicitly naming the remote:

  flatpak --user install flatpark com.automattic.Beeper

If you do not already have Flathub available for per-user runtime dependencies, add it with:

  flatpak --user remote-add --if-not-exists flathub \
    https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

To remove the old ebuild installation after migrating, run:

  emerge --deselect net-im/beeper-appimage
  emerge --ask --depclean net-im/beeper-appimage

The FlatPark remote flags do not prevent explicitly installing or updating applications from FlatPark. This notice was drafted for Arran with AI assistance.

The packages dev-util/codex and dev-util/codex-bin have been added to the official guru repository. They have been removed from this overlay to avoid collisions. Please make sure you have the guru overlay enabled to continue receiving updates for these packages.

Starting with dev-lang/flutter-bin-3.47.0-r1, the package-managed Flutter SDK under /opt/flutter is treated as immutable. Flutter's writable runtime cache is seeded into each user's cache directory instead of modifying /opt/flutter at runtime.

By default, the Flutter binary/artifact cache is stored under:

${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/flutter/<version>/bin-cache

and the pub cache is stored under:

${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/flutter/pub-cache

The initial run may therefore copy a substantial amount of data into the user's cache and temporarily increase disk usage. Multiple users will have separate writable caches.

Users and service environments may override these locations explicitly with FLUTTER_CACHE_DIR and PUB_CACHE. When both are set, the launcher does not require HOME or XDG_CACHE_HOME.

Old per-version Flutter cache directories may be removed manually when they are no longer needed. They will be recreated from the installed SDK if required.

The `dev-util/antigravity-bin` and `dev-util/antigravity-cli-bin` packages have been removed from this overlay because equivalent packages, `dev-util/google-antigravity`, `dev-util/google-antigravity-cli`, and `dev-util/google-antigravity-ide` are now available in the GURU repository.

Please migrate your installation to the GURU packages:

emerge --deselect dev-util/antigravity-bin dev-util/antigravity-cli-bin emerge --ask dev-util/google-antigravity dev-util/google-antigravity-cli dev-util/google-antigravity-ide emerge --depclean dev-util/antigravity-bin dev-util/antigravity-cli-bin

I am migrating RustDesk, Caprine, LocalSend, and Picocrypt from ebuild to flatpak installed version and as a result will no longer be updating ebuilds for them. The list of affected applications being removed from this overlay:

• RustDesk
• Caprine
• LocalSend
• Picocrypt

These applications have valid flatpaks in the main flatpak repo (Flathub). You can search for flatpaks using `flatpak search <name>`. Example installation commands: flatpak install flathub com.rustdesk.RustDesk flatpak install flathub com.sindresorhus.Caprine flatpak install flathub org.localsend.localsend_app flatpak install flathub io.github.picocrypt.Picocrypt

If you'd like to continue using ebuilds, you can take the workflows and config from the git history of this overlay and put them in your own overlay to continue support. Alternatively, you can log an issue on the arrans_overlay repo for assistance or requests.
