Bugzilla Bug 120348

Although this nice little program has been kicked out of portage (see
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66053), I still like and use it, as well
as others (see http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-371885.html). So I created
two patches: the first removes the configure checks for arts (as mentioned by
Robert in bug 66053); the second patch is needed for rp-pppoe-3.6 which changed
the names for adsl-start and adsl-stop to pppoe-start and pppoe-stop.

I hope this is of use to someone. I don't know any working alternative to
rppppoek, so I believe this thing deserves to be in portage for the time being.

in case someone needs this patch as well

I post this patch as well in case it vanishes from Google's cache someday.

Good idea. Let us hope it get's back into portage.

But there's one problem with the ebuild. The version number should remain 0.33
instead of 0.33-r2 or you should change the line
SRC_URI="http://download.berlios.de/segfaultskde/${P}.tar.gz" to
SRC_URI="http://download.berlios.de/segfaultskde/rppppoek-0.33.tar.gz"

Because ${P} is replaced by rppppoek-0.33-r2 but there's no
rppppoek-0.33-r2.tar.gz but only a rppppoek-0.33.tar.gz on the download server.

OK, forget my comment about the version number. Sorry!!!
I was wrong. The -r2 is ignored by ${P}.

But don't forget the other comment. It is a great idea. And rppppoek should get
back into portage.

So, you are the new maintainer of this? Can you make a fixed -0.34 release
then, please?
We would rather like to have it added w/o patches.

It's in the works.

Version 0.34 is out. Ebuild and ChangeLog attached. Should the bug title be
changed?

Please fix the SRC_URI.

Brr, BerliOS changed their pages. I'll have to look for another place to store
the tarball.

Fixed SRC_URI for rppppoek-0.34; added version 0.40 which features a nice tray
icon animation when traffic is running through the line. It may make sense to
add both versions (0.34 and 0.40) to the tree because 0.34 is basically the
same as version 0.33 plus Gentoo patches, which has proven to be stable, whilst
0.40 adds new features.

updated ChangeLog

version 0.40 has been added to the tree, with ~amd64 and ~x86 keywords.
I cannot add 0.34 with stable keywords, so I don't see the point of adding both
of them.

No problem. Thanks for bringing it back into the tree! :-)
