I have written a program in python/gtk, which allows parsing the elogs (feature of portage 2.1) in a graphical environment. It is GPL'ed. Details and a link to the program itself can be found here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-465493.html the program: http://www.rz-berlin.mpg.de/~laurin/elogviewer I am not familiar with bugzilla or writing ebuilds but the one I wrote works at least locally and it is available here: http://www.rz-berlin.mpg.de/~laurin/elogviewer-0.4.0.6.ebuild And I suggest app-portage/elogviewer in the tree. As it is python/gtk, it does not require compilation and is platform independent. Hence, it should be possible to move it from ~arch to arch as soon as portage-2.1 is arch as well.

Created attachment 89006 [details] elogviewer-0.4.0.7.tar.bz2 as should be fetched by emerging

It depends on python does it not?
Created attachment 89054 [details] ebuild, added python dependency
Created attachment 89056 [details] minor bug fixes in 0.4.0.7
archive updated at http://www.fhi-berlin.mpg.de/~laurin/elogviewer-0.4.0.7.tar.bz2 to reflect minor bug corrections

This software needs documentation. Currently, there is no man page and after installing it via the attached ebuild, the following resulted: # elogviewer --help Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/elogviewer", line 32, in ? os.chdir( "/var/log/portage" ) OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/log/portage' Which is not very user friendly. Additionally, I don't see any copyright information or specific licensing in the source code. It does state distributed under the terms of the GPL, but which version of the GPL (any of them? or just version 2?)
This is now in the sunrise overlay. You can find soon it at: http://gentoo-sunrise.org/svn/reviewed/app-portage/elogviewer
Oh and please test on all platforms you have, so I can add KEYWORDS, I only can confirm x86...
I do not really see in what my emerge --info matters since I did compile python and pygtk, but not elogviewer... but on the other hand, it is nothing secret, so there it is.

Created attachment 99049 [details] elogviewer-0.4.0.8 CHANGELOG added a copy of the GPL added short man page added postrm and prerm functions to the filter
A temporary home for downloading is http://www.v-li.de/temp/elogviewer-0.4.0.8.tar.bz2 now, which will be used by the new ebuild in Sunrise. Mathias, please contact me by email to coordinate us. In sunrise there is a man page provided (I think it should be section 1 not 5), which is a bit more verbose than your version. By the way, version number is still .7. You should really think about creating a Sourceforge project or something similar to have a permanent location. http://www.gentoo-sunrise.org/
Created attachment 99209 [details] elogviewer-0.4.1.tgz CHANGELOG 0.4.1 now uses gtk.UIManager added shortcuts error redirected to stderr the major annoyances are now corrected
Comment on attachment 99209 [details] elogviewer-0.4.1.tgz Added to Sunrise, will hit "reviewed" branch soon.
I updated the ebuild to support KDE (kelogviewer) and text mode (eread, a software by dberkholz), but I will switch the latter to elogv (to be found in bug #150733) and maybe the three authors can collaborate...
Another update in sunrise: Splitted the ebuild again, rest see Forums.
In Portage as app-portage/elogviewer
any chances to add ~amd64 keyword?
(In reply to comment #20) > any chances to add ~amd64 keyword? Open a bug and tell there you successfuly built it. It will be assigned to me and I will cc amd64.
