Bugzilla Bug 92501

I'm not certain I'm making this request correctly (first time). 
JFFNMS should be in portage, as it is very useful for system 
and network management. It's also very difficult to install
from scratch.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. New ebuild request.
2. Probably make in the wrong place.
3. OK flame me.....

Actual Results:  
ebuild for jffnms needed desperately.

Expected Results:  
installed easily via emerge.

very sketchy ebuild

Marcelo, are you still working on this ebuild? I wouldn't mind maintaining it
in
case you don't want to ...

Well, Marcelo is away. so let's put some updates to this ebuild here and wait
for him to come back.

Updated ebuild. Added some minor changes and information at the end of the
ebuild.  This ebuild has a lot of room for improvements.

Users interested in this ebuild, may also be interest in this one too:
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98676 (jffnms snmp extension).

Hey there (just got back :-),

Sure Otavio, go for it.

Hi Marcelo, 

I'll continue working on this ebuild, thanks.

Dunno if it helps, but I can upload the ebuild I did a while back for 0.8.1 ? 
It works but a never got round to fully testing it to submit :)

Ok, I'm back to this one. (Sorry for the *very long* delay). Have anyone tested
the latest ebuild?

Added cron command to ebuild.

Another one ... *much* cleaner now.

This package has a complex post-installation procedure, so I'll check with the
documentation team how can I have a document on our page with detailed
instructions about how to properly configure this. In the mean time I'll
provide a "beta" version of this doc.

Just as a note, a preview of jffnms documentation can be found here:
http://dev.gentoo.org/~angusyoung/docs/jffnms/docs/jffnms.html

Any chance this ebuild is going to be updated as the recent
changes in php, perl and other packages has rendered the ebuild broken:

Sorry guys, I've in debt with you with this package. I'll correct it and commit
this week.

The existing manual:
http://dev.gentoo.org/~angusyoung/docs/jffnms/docs/jffnms.html

Here are some great links to add to your online manual:

http://www.jffnms.org/docs/installing.html#sec:setup

http://www.jffnms.org/docs/jffnms.html

I'd also update the snmp details, briefly.

Ok, I updated the ebuild and the documentation. It's my opinion that the
documentation could be better (mysql and snmp, mainly), but for now this all I
can do.

If no problems appears with this ebuild I'll commit this week.

Another update to the ebuild:
1) Adjusted copyright notice
2) Added a wddx and sockets to the list of use flags required for php.
3) Removed mod_php use flag test.

I updated the documentation too.

1) Corrected type (dev-lan -> dev-lang). 
2) Added use flag "session"
3) Cleanups

Added test for php's cli USE Flag. Tomorrow I'll post postgresql_db and
postgresql_db_tables that I mention in the documentation (I'd do it today, but
forgot them at work).

Created an attachment (id=81587) [details]
postgresql_db

As promissed yesterday, here comes the missing scripts: database creation
script.

Created an attachment (id=81588) [details]
postgresql_db_table

Table creation script. 

By the way, PostgreSQL scripts are separate because they didn't work together. 

Created an attachment (id=81589) [details]
mysql_db

MySQL user and db creation script.

(From update of attachment 81587 [details])
PostgreSQL User creation script.

The documentation was sent today to the gentoo-doc team. As soon as it's ok I
can commit this ebuild.

Committed ebuild. The doc is also on the main site now.
