Bugzilla Bug 219902

After what has seemed an eternity, I have finally been able to finish porthole
for a new release that fixes a number of 'outdated' issues with porthole-0.5.0.

There have been nearly no issues with the -0.6.0_rc1 release in the unsupported
forum thread:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-550420.html

Most all bugs I found and fixed myself.  I think everyone will find this a much
nicer version to use with many feature enhancements.  It is also very, very
stable.  Even the buggy cvs version has been very stable for a long time aside
from some incomplete features and small interface bugs which did not affect
package installation.

I am calling for translation file updates and any new translations that users
are willing to do to be included in the final -0.6.0 release.

Also, I will be submitting 2 plug-in modules for other packages as well.

Reproducible: Always

ebuild

Thanks Brian. I have committed the ebuild with only the ~x86 keyword. 
Unfortunately, I'm getting a segmentation fault on my AMD64 box, so I'm not
comfortable with the adding it with the other keywords until someone with those
architecture tests it.  I will open a bug on Sourceforge for the AMD64
segmentation fault and I will also open a Gentoo bug for the other
architectures to test and re-add the unstable keywords.

I'm adding back the ~amd64 keyword, since the problem is with pygtk-2.12.1
which has now been marked -amd64.

bugfix for --oneshot not added for dependencies

the ebuild will need this patch added.  I don't know how I missed this one
until now.

updated ebuid with the patch

porthole-0.6.0_rc3 committed to the tree.

I've released rc4 with all the accumulated bugfixes.  Hopefully this will be
the last one before the final release.  There have been very few bugs submitted
overall this release considering the major revamp the code went through.

updated ebuild  (no patches applied)

I just added rc4 to the tree, I am going on vacation for the next two weeks and
will have very limited availability.  If you release the final version before I
get back, you have my permission to ask another developer to add it to the
tree. Point them to this comment if they ask.

See Bug 265602 for ebuild.

see bug 265602 for a patch and ebuild diff which fixes a <python-2.6
compatibility issue.

p.s. I didn't know I should have re-opened this bug for the release.  Thanks.

I am using rc5 and it seems that when looking at the porthole summary for a
package, use flags specified only in package.use are not reflected in the
summary.

In svn the use flag info in the Summary view has been completely re-vamped and
should match all portage output since it now gets the final ebuild environment
USE flags from portage.  Please test the svn version to see if the middle line
of USE flag info matches your package.use and other settings.  I will do some
testing for that condition as well.

There are now 3 lines of USE flag info:

1) IUSE as reported by portage which may contain any flags added by eclasses,
etc.
2) general USE flag Settings by all the ususal sources.
3) Final  environment USE flag settings which should display any overrides that
have been made to the general settings.

I am just finishing up some code updates to eliminate some deprication warnings
and should be releasing -0.6.0 final this week.

I've finally released -0.6.0 final with more bugfixes/small improvements to the
code.  I think people will be quite pleased with it's progress and stability.

Also, with this release the following bugs should now be closed as
resolved-fixed.

bug 195465 Porthole-0.5.0 problem.  -0.5.0 is now out of date with portage code
and should be removed from the tree.

bug 224877, bug 238192, bug 264167, bug 265602 are all bugs on the -0.6.0_rc's
and have all been fixed in this release.

That should clean out a few on your list.

Thank You...

porthole-0.6.0 is now in CVS, thanks!
