Patch to go with the ebuild.
Actulay we had this ebuild in overlay too. But i removed it because of various issues. Use gtk-themes-qt as replacement. ahem gtk-engines-qt... gtk-engines-qt is just very different, and I've tried it several times before - it didn't do well. gtk-engines-kde4 is different approach, it let's you use native GNOME themes which works and looks well. Can you elaborate what issues did you have with this package? Well we even used -0.8b and it was failing for some apps. specially for firefox. it crashed.... :( If there will be new version working better we might really rething this Strange as I've used 0.8b (now I use 0.7) and never experienced any crashes, nor firefox nor any other GTK app. I've only used the official GNOME themes (mostly clearlooks) not x11-themes/gtk-kde4-theme. Ebuild for 0.8b before removal from overlay (for further notice and use) http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/kde.git;a=blob;f=x11-themes/gtk-engines-kde4/gtk-engines-kde4-0.8b.ebuild;h=fdb87c8db65f643e69f5d8e149f0a9c25875cf2b;hb=9b39b6cc314650f8bd78fdeb61c4de11d1c9a000 Good news for you, I just added gtk-engines-kde4 back to overlay. So test and report issues. Comment on attachment 167986 [details]

Mark as obsolete since newer version is already in kde-testing overlay
See comment #9. Package works, no crashes and GTK apps look beautiful as they should with clearlooks theme=) bugs for packages in overlay should NOT be marked as later :] Bugs should be marked as fixed when added to main tree. :] As gtk-engines-qt breaks mozilla-firefox-3.5* (see http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=277726) it would be really great to push gtk-engines-kde4 into portage ASAP. I'm using gtk-engines-kde4-0.9e w/o problems on x86. * Messages for package kde-base/systemsettings-4.3.2: * If you want to use GTK integration then we recommend you to try * one of the following packages: * x11-themes/gtk-engines-qt * x11-themes/gtk-engines-kde4 * x11-themes/qtcurve-qt4 But there's no gtk-engines-kde4 in portage! in portage Reopen & removed. It's not usable at all. (In reply to comment #17) > Reopen & removed. It's not usable at all. > How come? I've been using it for a long time without problems.

Install it, switch to it, with e.g. gtk-chtheme 2. Run e.g. Firefox, everything seems working (but ugly) 3. Close Firefox and start gtk-chtheme again to switch to e.g. gtk-engines-qt 4. Start Firefox again and watch how your Text in GTK+ widgets won't show anymore, and all icons are overlapping. "Solved" by: find ~/ -name '.gtkrc-2.0' -delete Wouldn't call that usable if it breaks so easily. + 23 Oct 2009; Samuli Suominen <ssuominen@gentoo.org> + systemsettings-4.3.2.ebuild: + Remove gtk-engines-kde4 reference wrt #241248.

Why did not you masked it before removal? It would give chance to people which are dependent on it to move it to their local overlay to have some time to test, install, uninstall, and find some other solution for them In more convenient way. What about removing gtk-engines-qt as well, as slots :1 and :2 does not work together and switching between KDE 3.5 and KDE4 is not possible :( You are forcing people to throw out KDE3 and use unstable KDE4 or what? Please don't remove packages which people use without saying next time :((( |
