Description Horea Christian 2013-10-01 01:26:46 UTC
Hi, it's great to see how git-annex is already in portage. A very nice feature of the program is that it allows graphical interaction with your repositories. It does so via a webapp which can be launched by running

"git annex webapp" 

.

Many distros have a launcher for that - I believe we should have one as well. 

I think

src_install(){
    make_desktop_entry(git annex webapp, Git-annex)
}

Would do it, but I did not test this.

Many thanks.

Sorry for  a long delay. I've tried to add this to the latest git-annex in haskell overlay first, can you test it for yourself?

The desktop file is present in dev-vcs/git-annex-5.20140306 from main tree and should work, but I would rather use

Categories=Utility;

instead of 

Categories=Office;
Comment 3 Alexander Vershilov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2014-03-18 12:20:40 UTC
Ok, moved to Utils with no revbump.
Comment 4 Fabian Köster 2014-03-18 15:45:50 UTC
I think the correct string for this category is "Utility", not "Utils", see
