This is a new ebuild for the Perl language bindings of wxWidgets. It's a prerelease version but the earlier versions don't seem to compile. It requires two patches, one to bypass the ExtUtils::MakeMaker version check and another to get around a minor problem with the makefile, probably caused by the fact that we're not using a recommended version of ExtUtils::MakeMaker.

wxwindows peoples are you interested?
Created attachment 46231 [details] wxperl-0.21.ebuild Thanks for the ebuild. I've attached a revised version of yours that adds three USE flags, debug, docs and unicode. I also added --extra-cflags="${CFLAGS}" It will also install samples and demo files with USE="doc" Instead of your blibdirs patch I used sed because the Makefile is generated dynamically there may be less chance of the patch failing. I've compiled gtk2, gtk2+unicode and debug versions of both of those. I'm no Perl expert, so please test the revised ebuild and let me know if theres any problems you can spot. I noticed you weren't using the official sourceforge mirror and changed the ebuild to use that since the files didn't have the same MD5 checksum. Is there any reason why we shouldn't use the sourceforge taball?
Ah! They put 0.21 on SourceForge 2 days after a made the ebuild. Doh! Good idea to use sed instead of a patch. I dunno why I didn't think of that. I actually only created this ebuild so that I could use this application that needed wxPerl but I couldn't get that application to work properly and it's no longer being developed. Consequently I'm not too bothered about it now but of course, some other people might find it useful. I would test it but I'm not a Perl expert either, I only know the basics and those are pretty hazy.
Created attachment 57867 [details] wxperl-0.22.ebuild wxGTK-2.6.0 was just added to portage. This needs a little fixing to get it working with it. Comment out the #WX_GTK_VER=2.6 to get it to work with 2.4 in the meantime.
Pythonhead - i can take assignment of this if you want (don't see anything here that isn't perl). Probably have it up and running tomorrow :)
