Description shimi 2010-12-27 19:14:57 UTC

(not a regression; I gave my version, but stable 1.1.7 acts the same. at least not a regression from stable. :))

ViewVC has a standalone web server, if you don't want to use CGI (or a web server at all...). This file enables it. although the file lives in the downloaded tarball, it's not copied to the live filesystem as far as I can see.

# tar tvf /usr/portage/distfiles/viewvc-1.1.8.tar.gz  | grep standal
-rwxr-xr-x cmpilato/cmpilato 29637 2010-09-09 21:20 viewvc-1.1.8/bin/standalone.py

# emerge viewvc
# updatedb
# locate standalone.py
<no output>
#

standalone.py is too generic name. www-apps/viewvc-1.1.9 now installs standalone.py as viewvc-standalone-server.
