Bug 167129 – please consider stabilizing x11-apps/xedit-1.0.2 on AMD64 and x86

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Flophouse Joe 2007-02-15 22:41:42 UTC]

Please consider stabilizing x11-apps/xedit-1.0.2 on AMD64 and on x86.

x11-apps/xedit-1.0.2 compiles and works fine for me on amd64 and on x86.  Additionally:
(a) it's been in portage > 30 days
(b) there don't appear to be any stable versions on any arch at the time of this writing:
joe@becky16 ~ $ cd /usr/portage/x11-apps/xedit/
joe@becky16 /usr/portage/x11-apps/xedit $ grep ^KEYWORDS *.ebuild
xedit-1.0.1.ebuild:KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~mips ~ppc ~ppc64 ~sparc ~x86"
xedit-1.0.2.ebuild:KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~mips ~ppc ~ppc64 ~sparc ~x86"


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Do you actually use this package?

We're trying to get a feel for what X packages people actually use, with the possibility of removing things that no one uses.

Please reopen when you reply to the above comment.

[Comment 3 Flophouse Joe 2007-09-07 18:29:38 UTC]

Sorry for the delay in my response; I don't appear to have received an e-mail in association with comment #1.

When I filed this bug originally, I *was* using xedit every day.  It is helpful for me to have a quick place to put text, and xedit served that purpose well.

Since that time, however, I have switched from xedit to app-editors/gedit .  I have not used xedit in several months.

If no one else is asking for xedit, then I am comfortable with leaving it keyworded ~.

[Comment 4 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) 2007-09-07 21:10:33 UTC]

OK, I'm going to close pending demand.
