Bug 189595 - app-editors/kile-2.0_beta1 version bump
Kile is a IDE for LaTeX documents. The new version apparently has many
improvements and it would be great to have an ebuild to test.
Reproducible: Always
I've added app-editors/kile-2.0_beta1 to the tree. It's currently
package.mask'ed because it currently doesn't feature localisations in contrast
to the previous versions and because it's a beta release.
Thus, you'll have to add it to /etc/portage/package.unmask to try it.
Wow, that was quick :)
Thanks. I'll try it and report back.
Could a png USE flag be added that pulls in dvipng?
There's a new previewing option that uses it.

Yes, I'm aware of that. Please take a look at the post-install message - we not
only would have to add quite a few USE-conditional dependencies but what would
we draw in if you had the "png" USE flag set? dvipng or Imagemagick? Or "pdf" -
acroread or kpdf? And so on.
We usually don't add USE-conditional dependencies for optional runtime
dependencies because they rarely ever make much sense.
Instead, we usually add post-install messages as in this case to inform our
users about the options they have. If you use the ELOG_* options in
/etc/make.conf smartly (e. g. I get all messages mailed to me), it's rather
easy to follow up if you face any problems.
