Description Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-06-14 08:08:04 UTC
Earlier versions flag the Encoding key missing as an error, but since desktop entry spec 1.0 it is deprecated.

In line to the spec I'd like to drop the Encoding key from make_desktop_entry() and make_session_desktop() in eutils.eclass. Could that possibly cause problems with Gnome?

desktop-file-utils-0.13.ebuild

New ebuild with emacs support.

Well, it certainly will before the new version goes stable.  After, probably not; at least, in my brief testing, it caused no problems.

WRT the ebuild: doesn't the unmerge use the same USE flags that were used during emerge, not the ones that were set during unmerge?  They're certainly saved...

Could you add this to the tree?
Comment 4 RĂ©mi Cardona (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-07-20 09:43:09 UTC
Not only Gnome's ;)

Indeed.. left it out.

0.13 is now in tree but we should keep this open so eutils can be 
adjusted after this is stabilized.

Reassigning to games since we wrote/maintain this block of code, as the primary user.

OK.  This is now FIXED in CVS...

Thanks everybody!
