Bugzilla Bug 167372

XML Copy Editor (http://xml-copy-editor.sourceforge.net/) is an XML editor with
support for DTD, Schema, XSLT and others. It would be nice to see this added to
Portage.

Requirement on x11-libs/wxGTK >= 2.8.0 - 2.6.3.3 is latest version in Portage

This is a very nice application indeed.
I'll be using it for Gentoo's XML/XSL


$ emerge -vp wxGTK xmlcopyeditor

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

You can get wxGTK-2.8 from drizzt's overlay.

FYI, I am not an ebuild writer, so don't expect support from me.
I don't have anything else that needs wxWidgets, you might need extra steps if
you have both 2.6 and 2.8 slots.

If anyone takes up maintainership for xmlcopyeditor, it would be great if there
was a USE flag (e.g. GuideXML) that triggers inclusion of the attached
templates in /usr/share/xmlcopyeditor/templates/

IIRC Portage doesn't like files whose names contain space, they aren't
supported in VDB or something like that.

$ equery f xmlcopyeditor|grep " "
/usr/share/xmlcopyeditor/help/Table of Contents.hhc

/usr/share/xmlcopyeditor/rulesets/Default dictionary.xml

It's bug 14983. According to people at #-portage, you should avoid installing
files whose name contains space.

Ok, sorry for noise, aaprently it is supported:

14:28 < zmedico> jkt|: portage supports single spaces in filenames
14:29 < zmedico> 2 spaces next to eachother won't work.  you can have single
spaces with other characters on both sides though

Since wxGTK-2.8 is still out of the tree, we've to wait to put this into
portage.
The best solution I can see is that drizzt host the app in his overlay until
2.8 hit the tree, so you don't have to add another overlay to your list.

@drizzt: what do you think?

I think I can maintain the app for you when 2.8 will be ready to public
consumption by the modest price of a couple of beers =)

xmlcopyeditor-1.0.9.7.ebuild

New version 1.0.9.7

Packed neysx's templates into a tar.gz and make them conditional via USE
guidexml.
If there is a need in the future to add more templates, just add them to the
tar.gz and the ebuild will automatically install them.

Thanks. FYI, 1.1.0 is out, just rename the ebuild.

xmlcopyeditor-1.1.0.1.ebuild

New version 1.1.0.1. The SLOT variable was missing in the ebuild (which can
generate some problems using revdep-rebuild and probably other tools).

Renaming the 1.1.0.1 ebuild to 1.1.0.2 works like a charm.

So does 1.1.0.3

Here we go.

wxGTK-2.8 went into the main tree some days ago and I sent
xmlcopyeditor-1.1.0.4 (current latest version) to portage some hourse ago. 

It's marked ~x86 and ~amd64 so it should be safe to upgrade and remove the
overlays.

Enjoy.
