Bug 120744 – xplanet-scripts-0.2003 (New Package)

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Boky 2006-01-28 09:45:41 UTC]

Hi!

Please find attached xplanet-scripts-0.2003 ebuild.

xplanet-scripts a bunch of useful scripts for the xplanet software. They download cloud images, configure xplanet etc.

They're written in perl.

The author does not seem to track any versions of software, but since the last updates happened in 2003, I marked it as '0.2003'.

Also, there are is no mention of version dependences to xplanet (There's a mention of 0.9 so I included this) or perl (used 5.8).

Boky

The package seems to depend on some CPAN modules.

My ebuild knowledge is not good enough to include them; can someone else do it please?

The modules are:
- LWP::UserAgent

Update: this script seems to work only with versions < 1.0 :-(

Unversioned tarballs are a major PITA, they keep breaking digests all the time. Unless you are able to convince upstream to choose a better versioning scheme, this won't be in portage, sorry.
