0.5 Release Binary i386 Ebuild

This is a binary ebuild for the 0.5 release. Although exe itself is pure python
it depends on undocumented features in Mozilla Firefox that are not available
in the gentoo mozilla-firefox, so we have included a binary of mozilla-firefox
that supports our command line arguments. It does not conflict in any way with
the gentoo mozilla.

We're now working on PyXPCOM bindings between exe and mozilla-firefox, which
will also need a different mozilla build, or patches to the current
mozilla-firefox ebuild, because it doesn't build pyxpcom by default.

what is the status of this?

Much easier to install ebuild 0.7 release

This is the 0.7 release. It uses gtkmozembed and pygtk, so is now more
compatible with gentoo's mozilla-firefox build. (The 0.5 release depended on an
undocumented mozilla-firefox flag that wasn't in the gentoo firefox build. The
new release depends instead on gnome-python-extras who provide gtkmozembed.

More accurate dependencies 0.7 release

Unfortunately still depends on cvs version of twisted, which is not in main
gentoo tree yet.

> what is the status of this?

With release 0.7 it has come back to life. 0.5 was too hard to make an ebuild,
because it depended on undocumented mozilla features, which are not in gentoo
mozilla.

Unfortunately we still depend on twisted-666 (cvs version). However I'm going to
upload a patch to https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99300. That will
enable us to run.

Ebuild for version 0.13

Version 0.13.

Tested and works ok with twisted-2.1

k i'll test this asap. sorry for the delay. been busy lately..

hi

i can commit this as soon as i've finished checking it but one thing. I don't
really want to be responsible for this ebuild since I'm not really interested
in using it myself though I would be willing to be a 'proxy' for you so you
email me when there's a new build and I check/correct & commit it for you.
You'd also be listed in the metadata.xml file as maintainer so people can
contact you.
Is this ok with you?

regards
P.S.: if i don't answer to bug comments plz email me directly as i sometimes
overlook bug emails ;)

ebuild for exe-1.04 

The actual version for exe is 1.04. I modified the 0.13 ebuild a little bit to
get exe installing and working correctly:

15c15
< S="${WORKDIR}/exe"
---
> S="${WORKDIR}"
18c18
<               >=www-client/mozilla-firefox-1.7.8
---
>               >=www-client/mozilla-1.7.8

Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild 
submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely
manner. There are simply too many new packages.

Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The 
sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to 
commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry 
into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this 
and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =)

Because this is a mass message, we are also asking you to be patient with us. 
We anticipate a large number of requests in a short time. 

Thanks,
On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team,
Jeremy.

Now the ebuild is commited to the sunrise overlay, under app-misc/exe, waiting
to be reviewed.

Matthew, could you add the keyword "InOverlay" to the bug?
