10-Mar-2006 11:12am PST  JBidwatcher 0.9.9 is not working. Check out the developers blog for a link to an early beta of the next version. I'm putting this pointer here, because I can't do a full release until this weekend, and thousands of users are stranded until I can get a real release together.

IMO jbidwatcher 0.9.9 should either be hard masked currently, or it chould be updated to 1.0pre2.

jbidwatcher package.masked and because java is under a package freeze we don't usually add new versions but I think we can make an exception for jbidwatcher as the current versions are completely broken

jbidwatcher-1.0.0_pre6.ebuild

1.0pre5 seemed very stable. A few cosmetic issues were reported and was corrected.

1.0pre6 is now the official release version.  Here's the info and changelog:

JBidwatcher 1.0pre6 has been released. It's not perfect, but it's been decently vetted, no major issues found. Because I've still got work to do on it, I'm still marking it as a pre-release, but it is the official current version as of now.
    * Fix eBay's breakage of the 'add auction' and other functions.
    * Allow the 'Save complete' dialog to be ignored.
    * Update getting 'My eBay' items, so that it massively works better. Including pagination, duplicate reduction, and overriding the deleted state of items.
    * Make it so that searches can have a 'skip deleted items' flag, which you can enable/disable per-search.
    * Multisnipe properly cancels later snipes again.
    * Many better recognition features for titles and prices.
    * Keep SearchManager's window positions between sessions.
    * Preserve toolbar on/off status between sessions.
    * Incorporate Gabor Kuti's changes for multi-column sort, URL load paging, and a 'Total' column.
    * Properly update the login cookie after waking from sleep.
    * Some audio events are possible, although not exposed.
    * An advanced setting to not display thumbnails.
    * My eBay load works better, more thumbnails are recognized.
    * If you're not logged in, there's a tooltip on the bar that tells you why (and recognizes eBay's CAPTCHA, and warns about it).
    * 'Bid anyway' works, for bid over BIN-price bids.
    * Filtering by currency.
    * A 'Properties' sheet for tabs, including custom columns and ended-auction destinations.
    * CSV Export function.
    * Printing improvements.

Here's an ebuild for jbidwatcher-1.0pre6 similar to Romain's, but with a separate patch instead of sed magic.

The java package freeze is over now, right?  Maybe time to no longer package mask this. 
Comment 11 A. Person 2006-06-05 09:47:14 UTC
Any chance of getting the latest version into portage?  Gentoo jbidwatcher is, of course, still completely broken.
Comment 12 R. May 2006-07-13 09:02:33 UTC
Hello,

here jbidwatcher works fine. There are a lot of Errors on emerge ... but it works fine.

R.R.

Just added to portage. Give it a few hours to hit your local rsync.

Thanks for the contributions, and sorry for the delay getting this into portage. Things have been very hectic lately with the upgrade to the new Java system.
