Bugzilla Bug 110083

Hello.   
   
I'm using doxygen to generate docs from my C++ programs, and doxymacs is an   
emacs plugin for syntax coloring and inserting documentation snippets for   
doxygen. Since I have multiple gentoo machines I thought an ebuild would be   
nice, and since I have it... well, why not submit it? :-)  
   
Probably the best place for the ebuild is app-emacs/doxymacs; I don't know how   
to make one for XEmacs (I only use emacs), but on the homepage they place   
instructions for XEmacs too.   
  
Have fun, 
Cipi

Hmmm... is it me responsible for correcting it? I don't know the rules, so...  
 
Anyway I apologize; I haven't read the rules for submitting ebuilds thoroughly. 
 

The rule of thumb is - the better the ebuild, the higher the chance a dev is
willing to work for you and accepts to maintain the package. The second point is
that the quality of user submitted ebuilds was pretty low and we have hundreds
of requests in bugzilla we currently cannot fulfill and maybe never can. So we
do at least review know.

Wait! Doxymacs is not my package. Doxymacs is a package I use and I thought 
other gentoo users would benefit from easy installation through portage. I hope 
that's not a problem (i.e. I only made and submitted the ebuild, but haven't 
asked doxymacs' maintainer about permission or anything). In my understanding 
GPL-2 is okay with that, but I want to be clear. 
 
Second, it wouldn't be a problem for me to edit the ebuild and add the header, 
but I don't want to work against your process with that.

Everything you use within Gentoo, someone works for. That you or other users may
be interested in an application means not necessarily a developer is - so being
as helpful as you as a user can is the very least you can do using a community
distribution.

Thanks. And congratulations to all of you for the gentoo distro. The package 
management works really great, and the docs are extraordinarily well written.

Change of dependencies.  app-emacs/w3 is only needed, if no GNU Emacs version
>=22 is available, as the URL package is now part of GNU Emacs.

This ebuild is now in the sunrise overlay.  You will find it soon at:
http://gentoo-sunrise.org/svn/reviewed/app-emacs/doxymacs

The ebuild in sunrise depends on app-emacs/w3 which is no longer in the tree.

Thanks! After review your fix will show up in sunrise.
http://www.gentoo-sunrise.org/sunrise/changeset/3224

I will bump to 1.8.0 and port it to our Emacs overlay.  The ebuild will
disappear from Sunrise, so switch to $(layman -a emacs), if you like to benefit
from bumps.  Thanks for all your work.

Ok, it is in Overlay now.  Please test and report failures here.  It now has
autoload capabilites and some other minor improvements.  Thanks for your work,
and the next time make sure, the Emacs team is cced on the bug so we actually
know about such requests.  I stepped by mistake over that package.

In Portage now.  Closing, thanks for your submissions.
