+
+<p>
+ Portato is a GUI for the package manager of <a href="http://www.gentoo.org">Gentoo</a> and <a href="http://www.sabayonlinux.org">Sabayon</a> - Portage. It is mostly written in <a href="http://www.python.org">Python</a> for the GTK+-frontend, which is used in most Linux desktop environments (except KDE).
+</p>
+
+<p>
+ As the current portage development is quite fast-paced, Portato is not able to keep step. Thus it might be that the released version(s) do not behave as expected. In these cases also try the <a href=${"development" | url}>development version</a>.
+</p>
+
+<%self:h2>Installation</%self:h2>
+<p>
+ Portato is delivered with the standard portage tree and can be installed using <code>emerge portato</code>.
+ If you want to use the development version, you need to do the following (given you have installed and configured layman ... if not: see <a href="http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/overlays/userguide.xml">this guide</a>):
+</p>
+
+<%self:hl lang="bash">
+layman -a portato
+echo "=app-portage/portato-9999" >> /etc/portage/package.unmask
+echo "=app-portage/portato-9999" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
+emerge -av portato
+</%self:hl>
+
+<%self:h2>Translations</%self:h2>
+<p>
+ Portato does know about the so called <strong>Native Language Support</strong>. It currently supports the following languages: Catalan, English, Italian, German, Polish, Portugese, and Turkish.
+</p>
+<p>
+ If you want to add support for another language, please see the <a href=${"translating" | url}>translation howto</a>.
+</p>
+
+<%self:h2>Forums</%self:h2>
+<p>
+ This project itself does not have any forums. But there are a couple of threads in other forums:<br>
+ If you are using Gentoo look into <a href="http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-502350.html">this forum thread (engl)</a> or into <a href="http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-495971.html">the German one</a>. If you are using Sabayon, use <a href="http://sabayonlinux.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=10158">this one</a>.
+</p>
+
+<%self:h2>Similar projects</%self:h2>
+<p>
+ Of course there are other projects too, which do the same or at least a similar job. These are for example:
+</p>
+<ul>
+ <li><a href="http://www.haskell.org/himerge">Himerge</a> - a frontend written in Haskell (yeah ;P)</li>
+ <li><a href="http://porthole.sourceforge.net/">Porthole</a> - also written in Python and using GTK+. This frontend inspired me to do my own ;). I also suggest this one as the alternative if Portato does not work as expected.</li>
+ <li><a href="http://www.kuroo.org/">Kuroo</a> - a frontend especially aimed for the KDE environment. <em>(Development seems to have stopped)</em>
+</ul>
