Description Aniruddha 2008-04-17 20:59:25 UTC 
An ebuild for libopensync-plugin-barry would be a nice addition to Gentoo portage :)

Reproducible: Always

Isn't that the same as app-pda/barry ?

Actually I wasn't sure whether to request an multisync USEflag for app-pda barry or an separate ebuild. I don't know how portage classifies these things

I don't think so. app-pda/barry does not build app-pda/libopensync for you if it does not exist on your system.

It would be nice if the ebuild checked if it was present and took the appropiate action.

(Currently trying to install on AMD64)

See bug 215399 for a new ebuild and patch for your local overlay. I went ahead and added the opensync-plugin via a USE flag. It's not an official flag, but it gets the job done for now. I'd recommend you add the use flags in package.use and not litter your make.conf with uncommitted flags.

Before this turns into a forum, head over to http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-691201.html for poll/discussion over a USE flag.

Opensync plugin available as the opensync USE flag in app-pda/barry-0.16 . It pulls app-pda/libopensync
