Released 2008-03-28 There have been a few development releases now. Although it is named unstable the application should quite stable. Here a comment from homepage regarding the previous release. "This is another release in the development tree which is called 'unstable' because the features change quickly, but the program is still rock solid."
Thanks reporting the new version -- assigning to ebuild maintainer.
Created attachment 169388 [details] bluefish 1.1.6 ebuild took a first stab at it. not sure if there is a cleaner, i.e. ebuild, way to add to /etc/xml/catalog. it builds and runs ok on my amd64 & kde4.
Created attachment 169396 [details] updated bluefish 1.1.6 ebuild added some einfo and removal of XML catalog entries in pkg_postrm

Please add a unified diff to the previous version, to make the changes more visible. Also I think gnome-vfs is no longer optional, at least it does not run through configure without gnome-vfs installed even with all gnome configure options disabled. Does it work for you without gnome-vfs?

Created attachment 169480 [details] bluefish-1.1.6.diff The new version needs gnome-vfs else configure fails, so I have added this dependency to the ebuild. There is also a new configure option to build a python plugin which should also be controlled by the ebuild probably with a python use flag. --enable-python enable (or disable) the building of the python plugin [default=auto->yes] I did not dig deeper as I am a bit frustrated because I did search long to find a good editor like bluefish. This new gnome-vfs dependency pulls a lot of gnome stuff which I try to avoid if possible as I am on xfce, so I consider switching to another editor if I find one that suits my needs.
Created attachment 169520 [details] updated bluefish 1.1.6 ebuild Thanks Daniel, i've started with the link you provided and ended up inspecting configure.ac. i've checked and you are right, you need gnome-vfs to build bluefish. configure.ac declares a list of required modules: BFREQ_required="gtk+-2.0 >= 2.6 \ gmodule-2.0 >= 2.6 \ gobject-2.0 \ glib-2.0 \ pango \ gdk-pixbuf-2.0 \ gdk-2.0 \ gnome-vfs-2.0 >= 2.10 \ libxml-2.0" and since the bluefish states that these are build time dependencies vs. runtime i've added them to DEPEND instead of RDEPEND. let me know if that's not way to go. i've replaced "use_with gnome libgnomeui" with "use_enable gnome libgnomeui" since the configure option is --enable-libgnomeui. otherwise build does not react to gnome use flag and defaults building with gnome support. also, i've added python use flag per your suggestion. i agree with you that having all those gnome dependencies mandatory suck but running another heavyweight DE made those mental struggles easier for me:)

Also it pulls in glib and pango for you, so no need for adding it. + >=gnome-base/gnome-vfs-2.10 gnome_vfs - for remote file support. This sounds like a runtime dependency too. You open files to edit at runtime, don't you? I am not sure about libxml so this should be checked. You can always check if it is a runtime dependency by removing it after installing and check if it starts or the provided functionality is there. For example does it start without gtk+ or are you able to open remote files without gnome-vfs. Do a quickpkg before and remove one by one and try. After that you can use emerge -k package to avoid recompiling the ones you have removed. Also the >= with versions strings for the deps are not required as lower versions are not in the tree anymore. > i've replaced "use_with gnome libgnomeui" with "use_enable gnome libgnomeui" > since the configure option is --enable-libgnomeui. otherwise build does not > react to gnome use flag and defaults building with gnome support. > also, i've added python use flag per your suggestion.

I am testing scite and juffed for now maybe they are an alternative.
(In reply to comment #12) Thanks, Daniel.
