these skins should work fine with 0.90-pre as well. it's basically a cleanup and a bump of mplayer-skins-0.1-r1. one version of the ebuild is as follows: # Copyright 1999-2003 Gentoo Technologies, Inc. # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 # $Header: /home/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/x11-themes/mplayer-skins/mplayer-skins-0.1-r1.ebuild,v 1.2 2003/03/27 11:46:31 seemant Exp $ S=${WORKDIR} DESCRIPTION="Collection of mplayer themes" HOMEPAGE="http://www.mplayerhq.hu/" THEME_URI="http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/Skin" SKINS="AlienMind-1.0.tar.bz2 Blue-1.0.tar.bz2 Blue-small-1.0.tar.bz2 BlueHeart-1.4.tar.bz2 Canary-1.0.tar.bz2 CornerMP-1.0.tar.bz2 CornerMP-aqua-1.0.tar.bz2 Cyrus-1.0.tar.bz2 MidnightLove-1.5.tar.bz2 Orange-1.0.tar.bz2 QPlayer-1.0.tar.bz2 WindowsMediaPlayer6-1.2.tar.bz2 avifile-1.5.tar.bz2 default-1.7.tar.bz2 disappearer-1.0.tar.bz2 gnome-1.1.tar.bz2 hayraphon-1.0.tar.bz2 hwswskin-1.0.tar.bz2 krystal-1.0.tar.bz2 mentalic-1.1.tar.bz2 neutron-1.4.tar.bz2 phony-1.0.tar.bz2 plastic-1.1.1.tar.bz2 proton-1.1.tar.bz2 slim-1.0.tar.bz2 softgrip-1.0.tar.bz2 trium-1.0.tar.bz2 xanim-1.5.tar.bz2 xine-lcd-1.0.tar.bz2 " SLOT="0" LICENSE="freedist" KEYWORDS="x86 ppc sparc alpha" DEPEND="net-misc/wget" RDEPEND="media-video/mplayer sys-apps/bzip2" for skin in $SKINS; do SRC_URI="${THEME_URI}/$skin $SRC_URI"; done src_install () { dodir /usr/share/mplayer/Skin cp -dR * ${D}/usr/share/mplayer/Skin/ chown -R root.root ${D}/usr/share/mplayer/Skin/ chmod -R o-w ${D}/usr/share/mplayer/Skin/ chmod -R a+rX ${D}/usr/share/mplayer/Skin/ } this has the very nagging issue of needing to actually list all those pesky skins. one could use lynx -dump, cut and grep to actually be very dynamic and all, but I'm not sure how that would work with digests? anyhow, the ugly version is to generate SRC_URI as follows: for skin in $( lynx -dump http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/Skin/\ | grep '. http' | grep bz2 | grep -v md5 | cut -f6 -d'/' ); do SRC_URI="${THEME_URI}/$skin $SRC_URI; done we would of course have to list lynx as a requirement for mplayer-skins. :-)
Created attachment 10342 [details] the ebuild as an attachment. I suppose you might want it as an attachment as well? :-)
ok, i committed a new version of the ebuild with more skins installed. but i didn't put in any of your suggestions with SRC_URI because: a) portage does not handle bash scripting of SRC_URI very well. b) wget'ing would be a very bad idea because of maintainability issues. who knows when suddenly a skin is in that directory that breaks the ebuild? and also digesting issues, etc. even though dynamically fetching the skin names would protect us from version bumps, but this is a big price to pay. and as with (a), portage doesn't deal well with scripted SRC_URI. oh, and Canary wasn't added because it was just plain not working.
well, you know best. I've seen the SRC_URI build trick been done before though, so maybe some broader policies should be sanctioned? and thanks for digging out the Canary skin, my apologies for submitting the build without testing it enough. :-/ sigh. at least there is room for improvement.
