from web site http://digitizer.sourceforge.net/ "This open source, digitizing software converts an image file showing a graph or map, into numbers. The image file can come from a scanner, digital camera or screenshot. The numbers can be read on the screen, and written or copied to a spreadsheet. The process starts with an image file containing a graph or map. The final result is digitized data that can be used by other tools such as Microsoft Excel and Gnumeric." really nice program, but I cannot find a ebuild for it.
The new 2.14 version compiles successfully on Gentoo, but it seems to have no make install option. Also, it requires some operation on a .pro file just to generate the make file. This tarball strikes me more as a kdevelop project file than a tarball intended for "normal" installation, although I confess I don't know enough to tell for sure. At any rate, the make install MIGHT be substituted by simply copying the final binary to /usr/bin/digitizer, the doc and usermanual directories to the appropriate places, etc. just copying the binary to /usr/bin/ allowed it to run, so it must be fairly self contained.
Created attachment 90132 [details] Basic draft ebuild for Digitizer 2.14 Should this be in sci-visualization or sci-misc?
This ebuild probably gets several things wrong, particularly the way the user manual is installed - all the png images wind up gzipped. Anyway, better than nothing and may prompt someone with more skill to fix it :-). Cheers, CY
1/ Don't hardcode versions into SRC_URI 2/ src_unpack() is redundant 3/ No need to dodoc LICENSE INSTALL
Created attachment 116269 [details] Cleaned up ebuild for Digitizer 4.1 I found the ebuild for Digitizer 2.14 and bumped it to version 4.1. I added a dependency for fftw-3.1.2 (listed as tested although older versions might work to). Finally I followed Jakubs recommendations and cleaned it up a bit.
Thanks to Mathias Weigt, this ebuild is now also available from the sunrise overlay: http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/sunrise/browser/reviewed/sci-visualization/digitizer
Isn't this program the same as media-gfx/engauge ? If so, then it is already in Gentoo Portage tree. :)
Yes it is the same as media-gfx/engauge ... which obviously silently entered the tree, please close
As of bug 108469 this application is in the portage tree as media-gfx/engauge. Removing it from sunrise and resolving this bug.
