I'm a friend of the author and i decided to make an ebuild for it (and this is my first public ebuild). this includes katoob-0.3.5.ebuild, Manifest and files/digest-katoob-0.3.5. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. cd /usr/local/portage 2. tar -xjpvf katoob-0.3.5.tar.bz2 3. cd app-editors/katoob/ from http://www.arabeyes.org/project.php?proj=Katoob : "Katoob is a light weight, multi lingual, BIDI-aware text editor based on the Gtk+ 2 library. It supports opening and saving files in multiple encodings. The main support was for Arabic language but more languages are currently supported. It should run on most BSD and POSIX compliant operating systems."
Created attachment 16860 [details] the ebuild (app-editors/katoob/*) you need to untar in /usr/local/portage.
i'm really sorry, i posted a wrong file
Created attachment 16887 [details] the fixed ebuild this is the fixed one, katoob-0.3.6.ebuild in the last one was actually an .tar.bz2.... sorry
hmmm, I didn't release 0.3.6 yet ?
Created attachment 18415 [details] minor fix of gtksourceview dependency
the gtksourceview is not at app-text (anymore?), but in x11-libs. here's the minor fix that lets it work on my system: http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=18415&action=view
Hello guys, Sorry about the delay. Thank you very much for your contributions. They sure are appreciated. I'm willing to commit an ebuild for a recent version of katoob, but before that I'd like to discuss a couple of problems I found in katoob-0.3.5's sources, now that I see that Mohammed is watching this bugreport. :) Please have a look at the following patch, which aims to apply two small corrections: a) On src/Makefile.in, move $(PANGOFT2_CFLAGS) and $(PANGOFT2_LIBS) before other variables so they get priority. The logic behind this is that in some systems where both /usr/include/freetype/freetype.h and /usr/include/freetype2/freetype/freetype.h are present (like mine), the compilation process will die abruptly, due to wrong inclusion order. b) On src/katoobdocument.c, add checks for parts of the code that should get compiled only if the HAVE_SPELL macro is defined. Otherwise, the compilation process dies unless you enable spellchecking. Please let me know what you think about this. By the way, very nice piece of software Mohammed. :) PS. Try to avoid attaching binary files on bugzilla. Moreover, you don't need to attach Manifests and digests. In this particular case, simply attaching the .ebuild would have been fine. Thanks.
Created attachment 18594 [details, diff] katoob-0.3.5-misc_fixes.patch
I thought that i've fixed all the spell checker compilation errors, Now I can swear that I didn't ;-) Thanks for the patches, The Makefile.am part is a brilliant idea :-) I'll commit the code tomorrow as I have to complete somethings 1st before the commit not to break anything!.
Ok, thanks for your comments. I've just committed a new ebuild for katoob-0.3.5, and I'll be keeping an eye on this package for new releases.. :) Thanks
