# Input Leap
|
||||
|
||||
This overlay has a working, updated version of Input Leap, a fork of
|
||||
Barrier (itself a fork of Synergy), which is a "virtual KVM switch",
|
||||
allowing you to share a keyboard and mouse between several computers
|
||||
over the network.
|
||||
|
||||
The most important things about Input Leap:
|
||||
- Maintained.
|
||||
- Supports Wayland.
|
||||
|
||||
## Project Status
|
||||
|
||||
Input Leap is technically alpha quality, because it does not yet have a
|
||||
stable release. Thus, the ebuild is a `9999` version ebuild.
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup
|
||||
|
||||
To use this overlay's version of Input Leap, unmask the following packages:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
dev-libs/libportal::projectmoon
|
||||
x11-misc/input-leap::projectmoon
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then add the package accept keywords:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
dev-libs/libportal::projectmoon
|
||||
x11-misc/input-leap::projectmoon **
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
*The double star allows unstable git builds.*
|
||||
|
||||
## USE Flags
|
||||
|
||||
This ebuild of Input Leap supports Wayland integration via `libei`, onb
|
||||
supported compositors (notably, wlroots is apparently not supported by
|
||||
upstream). To use the `libei` integration, you must have a version of
|
||||
`libportal` with Input Capture support, which at time of writing
|
||||
(libportal 0.7.1) is not yet released.
|
||||
|
||||
This overlay contains a custom ebuild of `dev-libs/libportal` that can
|
||||
enable Input Capture.
|
||||
|
||||
To configure Input Leap to use `libei` for Wayland support, add the
|
||||
following USE declarations:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
dev-libs/libportal inputcapture
|
||||
x11-misc/input-leap libei
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note that `inputcapture` is NOT a USE flag on the main Gentoo ebuild. So
|
||||
if you haven't unmasked this overlay's version of `libportal`, you will
|
||||
receive an error when trying to install Input Leap.
