DESCRIPTION="open drawing project: sketch, draw and create" A tool to create an initial foundation for artistic images. Example can be seen here: http://www.davidrevoy.com/temp/timelapse-pictures/ http://al.chemy.org/ Reproducible: Always
As far as I can see, there's no access to the source code while it claims to be GPL'd: http://al.chemy.org/download/ Using portage to just unpack and install sounds silly to me =x
"Bug" reported, will keep you updated when I receive an answer.
Answer from the developer: --- Hi, Thanks for your interest in Alchemy! I need to write up more documentation on this when I get time. For now, you can check out the source here: http://svn.al.chemy.org/svn I'm using Netbeans, so if you check it out with that it will compile and run straight off. Otherwise in another IDE you will have to make your own build file or adapt the ANT one included. Javadocs are here: http://docs.al.chemy.org/ Have fun! Karl ---
I assume the Java herd has some experience with dealing with maybe-ide-dependend buildfiles like http://svn.al.chemy.org/svn/Alchemy/build.xml If the how-to-build is not immediately clear, they could maybe CCed and give some hints.
(In reply to comment #4) > I assume the Java herd has some experience with dealing with > maybe-ide-dependend buildfiles like > http://svn.al.chemy.org/svn/Alchemy/build.xml Probably, I'm toying with it myself a bit anyway, as it's easy enough to pass an svn command within src_unpack()
(In reply to comment #5) > pass an svn command within src_unpack() There is a subversion eclass. Just set ESVN_REPO_URI at the top of the ebuild, it will then automatically download it during unpacking (unless you override src_unpack() in the ebuild).
008 is out.
This really looks like an awesome piece of software, I hope it is possible to find a maintainer for it.
Created attachment 264051 [details] Draft of an ebuild The ebuild doesn't work, I don't know how to get it to copy the "Modules" that comes with alchemy to the install folder. But it's a start. The ebuild file is based off of the Vuze ebuild, since that also uses ANT.
Created attachment 264055 [details] Manifest
Created attachment 264057 [details] Desktop file
Created attachment 264059 [details] A try to write our own build.xml I tried to edit the build.xml to also copy the modules directory but can't say that I was successful.
Created attachment 264061 [details] Path for the original build.xml I can't get the patch to run on the original build.xml, but I'm including it anyway. Perhaps somebody else knows more about the build system.
Comment on attachment 264055 [details] Manifest Sorry, shouldn't have uploaded this.
Created attachment 266699 [details] alchemy-9999.ebuild I've made some changes so that i now installs in the correct place and runs. Note that I've run into some bugs that makes you unable to draw if you changes the "brushes" too much. This also happens in the official bin so probably not a error in the ebuild. Be sure the download the new build.xml patch. However I don´t think that it's needed. But it's always good to skip a few unneeded step.
Created attachment 266701 [details, diff] alchemy-9999-build.xml-install.patch The fixed patch
Any chance this gets into portage? It's a great application!
Just a note. The current svn doesn't seem to compile with icedtea6. It seems to compile and run fine with icedtea7 though.
Hi again, long time no see. Shouldn't this have a "maintainer wanted" on it? And probably fixed on the 008-version instead of -9999.
