关于

metagen 是一个命令行工具，用于简化为Gentoo软件包生成 metadata.xml 文件。它遵循 GPL v2 许可证，并在 gitweb.gentoo.org 上托管。请使用 Gentoo的Bugzilla 报告有关 metagen 的错误。

示例

# metagen -e 'somebody@gentoo.org' -n 'Some Body' -t person -f -q
./metadata.xml written

# cat metadata.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE pkgmetadata SYSTEM 'https://gentoolinux.cn/dtd/metadata.dtd'>
<pkgmetadata>
        <maintainer type="person">
                <email>somebody@gentoo.org</email>
                <name>Some Body</name>
        </maintainer>
