1. Emerge layman (if you don't already have it).
2. Add Mario's repository to the /etc/layman/layman.cfg file by adding this line:

http://ftp.disconnected-by-peer.at/pub/overlay/geos_one-overlay.xml

under the line that starts “overlays :”. Then run (as root):

$ sudo layman -f
$ sudo layman -a go-mysql

or you can type

layman -f -a go-mysql -o 'http://ftp.disconnected-by-peer.at/pub/overlay/geos_one-overlay.xml'

so you don't have to modify the config file

3. activate the wanted storage engines bey activating the needed useflag

'Don't activate innodb and xtradb at the same time '

$ echo "dev-db/mysql big-tables extraengine profiling cluster pbxt pbms revision soliddb innodb xtradb filesystem sphinx spider" > /etc/portage/package.use/mysql

4. emerge the programm you want to use

$ emerge -av dev-db/mysql
