libgrss is a Glib-based library for feeds management. Release 0.3 is an optional dependency for Tracker starting release 0.7.26, I would like if it would be packaged before upgrade to that version so to spot as soon as possible problems and troubles. Code is available here: http://git.gnome.org/browse/libgrss/ More informations there: http://live.gnome.org/Libgrss Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
I seems that this package currently only works with snapshots so it is not suitable for immediate inclusion.
A live/scm ebuild is in my overlay (as net-libs/libgrss). tracker >=-0.8.0 needs it for it's miner-rss support, although some files are missing in 0.8.0 to successfully build it.
I work for the company which funded the development of libgrss (and the inclusion of the rss miner into tracker) and if nobody else steps up I would like to become the maintainer myself.
@lxnay, feel free to do it, you are most likely the best placed to handle this package.

In the meantime, it would be nice to have: - package description (max 80 chars) - tarballs (we prefer them over live ebuilds) - homepage (if any) Thanks

Maybe I misunderstand you, but from whom do you expect to get the package description, tarballs and homepage? I mean: the website is mentioned below, a package description is also there and for tarballs you have to ask upstream. The ebuild in my overlay is a live-git ebuild. And if someone in your company is still involved in tracker: they should fix the rss-miner stuff in tracker: [...] Making all in miners make[3]: Entering directory `/home/tiziano/entwicklung/gentoo/ebuilds/tracker-0.8.0/data/miners' make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/tiziano/entwicklung/gentoo/ebuilds/tracker-0.8.0/data/miners' make[3]: Entering directory `/home/tiziano/entwicklung/gentoo/ebuilds/tracker-0.8.0/data' make[3]: *** No rule to make target `tracker-miner-rss.desktop.in.in', needed by `tracker-miner-rss.desktop.in'.

@dev-zero: Ok I forgot to refresh the project page. So we only need tarballs. Roberto told me he's waiting for a GNOME infra dev to ack his request, and yes, I'm going to forward your request to Michele Tameni, who is maintaining that code in Tracker.

Thanks for spot the problem. Michele Tameni
