Here is the situation with EMBOSS 3.0.0 and related EMBASSY packages in Portage: - EMBOSS 3.0.0 and related EMBASSY packages are in Portage, in the testing branch for all supported arches. - The indexing program for Prosite has been modified. EMBOSS 3.0.0 will only work with Prosite 19.7 or later ebuilds. - Due to questionable decisions from upstream regarding their versionning scheme, some new EMBASSY packages have lower version numbers than the older versions. The "embassy" meta-package forces the correct versions to be installed. However, when individual packages are used, the user wil not be offered to update. - Upstream has not changed the version number for the packages where the only changes were those necessary for API compatibility. We differenciate these using Gentoo revision numbers. Since the archive names are identical for both versions, the sources for the new packages are always fetched from the EMBOSS FTP site. Users who have old distfiles will need to delete them. - The DOMAINATRIX package was split in five smaller packages. ~ppc and ~ppc-macos keywords were kept since these packages all use the conventional EMBOSS build process we know works on these arches. Their names are: - DOMAINATRIX - DOMALIGN - DOMSEARCH - SIGNATURE - STRUCTURE - It is impossible to mix the stable/testing EMBOSS/EMBASSY packages due to API changes. This means all supported supported packages must be marked stable at the same time. - Coordination will be necessay between arch teams to ensure we can get rid of older EMBOSS/EMBASSY versions as soon as possible to correct the current problems. Please test on your arch so we can stabilise soon.
I tested these the day you put them in the tree. Yeah, I'm a nerd, what can I say. They work fine on ppc- macos. Please feel free to stable the necessary packages for the 3.0 move whenever you stable them on x86 this one time.
emboss-3.0.0 and prosite-19.10 stable on ppc64. embassy* were never marked ppc64 in any way.
Stabilised ppc-macosx (with Lina Pezzella's permission). Older EMBOSS/EMBASSY versions removed from the tree. Thanks to everyone for their work.
