Modified beta flash update ebuild
Renamed w/ correct upstream version. Docs are installed now.
The SRC_URI points to an rpm, but I can't see rpm as a dependency (and because of that I am having problems). Is this correct ? Why not grab the .tar.gz which is available as seen in this bug's URL above and not the RPM? :) (In reply to comment #4) > Why not grab the .tar.gz which is available as seen in this bug's URL above and > not the RPM? :) > That's from the current stable ebuild, which this is just a modification of; see bug #185141 for how it ended up using rpm. One reason, though, is that the rpm has the docs and all that. I'm not really sure if the URI problems mentioned in the above bug still apply. (In reply to comment #5) > I'm not really sure if the URI problems mentioned in the above bug > still apply. The good news is that the tarball actually has a (semi-)useful version number attached to it, so in this case there's no reason to use the RPM. The bad news is that I have given this a try, and have had some odd problems with it. for example, if you go into a flash movie, right-click, and go into "Settings", good luck trying to close the dialog! So, I have checked in a tar.gz-based ebuild into the tree *but* it is package masked because of this flaky behaviour noted above. If you want it, you'll have to put the following line in your /etc/portage/package.unmask: =net-www/netscape-flash-9.0.60.0_beta082207 Enjoy. If you dare. This new version of netscape-flash is unusable with Konqueror 3.x (In reply to comment #7) > This new version of netscape-flash is unusable with Konqueror 3.x All the more reason to keep it in p.mask. Thank you for the report! |
