install cxxtest to gentoo

It is basically downloading the ebuild from the bgo-overlay - cxxtest and following the steps of this article at linuxreviews about how to install custom ebuilds with gentoo.

Which are in this case:

su

mkdir -p /usr/local/portage
echo PORTDIR_OVERLAY=/usr/local/portage >> /etc/portage/make.conf

mkdir -p  /usr/local/portage/metadata/
touch /usr/local/portage/metadata/layout.conf
echo "masters = gentoo" >> /usr/local/portage/metadata/layout.conf

mkdir -p /usr/local/portage/dev-util/cxxtest/
cd /usr/local/portage/dev-util/cxxtest/
wget http://gpo.zugaina.org/AJAX/Ebuild/2578437 -O cxxtest-3.10.1.ebuild
ebuild cxxtest-3.10.1.ebuild digest
emerge cxxtest
