Comment 3 Jonathan Cristoforetti 2007-05-04 02:22:39 UTC
I am not an expert in ebuild writing, so this is probably not the best by far.

I haven't figured out the dependencies yet, so they're missing from the ebuild.

cgmail-0.5.ebuild

wrong dependency, it needs gnome-python-desktop, not just gnome-python (for keyring support)

cgmail 0.5 seems to be a little bit buggy.  so I made an ebuild for the much more stable 0.4.1  (there is a patch file too, don't miss that)

(0.5 doesn't seem to work on gentoo quite right at the moment, i recommend 0.4.1)
Comment 13 danakj 2008-02-02 18:25:47 UTC
i'm not sure what changed, but I tried out 0.5 again and it is working perfectly, so please disregard my previous comment about it

change %s to %i for integers in checkers

I expierence a crash of cgmailservice on new mails because of those bad format. I had the same problem on debian, I've already fill a bug upstream a while ago without reaction. Here is very small patch and it's corresponding ebuild with the correction. (I'm new on gentoo, I'm not sure this is the right way to apply a patch in the ebuild)

(this is an automated message based on filtering criteria that matched this bug)
'EBUILD' is in the KEYWORDS which should mean that there is a ebuild attached 
to this bug.
This bug is assigned to maintainer-wanted which means that it is not in the 
main tree.
Heuristics show that no Gentoo developer has commented on your ebuild.

Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild 
submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely
manner. There are simply too many new packages.

Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The 
sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to 
commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry 
into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this 
and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =)

Because this is a mass message, we are also asking you to be patient with us. 
We anticipate a large number of requests in a short time. 

Thanks,
On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team,
Jeremy.
