Description Tim Weber 2009-10-03 13:10:57 UTC
fmenu is a fork of x11-misc/dmenu with enhanced features. It displays a menu where the user can select something by typing in a substring of the desired selection. The fork currently has support for vertical menus, new features are planned. This is especially useful for www-client/uzbl (not yet in Portage).

My ebuild, reviewed by the guys in #gentoo-sunrise. (Yes, I intend to add this to sunrise.)

The Ebuild has been changed a bit and is now submitted to Sunrise for review.
Comment 3 Tim Weber 2009-10-06 13:28:04 UTC
This is now in Sunrise: http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/sunrise/browser/reviewed/x11-misc/fmenu/
Comment 4 Simeon Maryasin 2009-11-25 09:45:46 UTC
Please add ~amd64 keyword, as it works fine on amd64.
Comment 5 Tim Weber 2009-11-26 13:26:36 UTC
~amd64 added to SVN. It will take up to several days for this change to propagate to Sunrise, since all changes are reviewed first.

Thank you for reporting.

Hello, everyone.

It seems that at least one ebuild related to this bug exists in the Sunrise overlay at the moment. However, I have to regretfully announce that after a long inactivity period the Sunrise project has been discontinued and the related overlay will be eventually removed. For this reason, I'd like to ask you to reevaluate the ebuilds and consider moving them. If you'd like to maintain a package from Sunrise in Gentoo, please take a look at our Proxy Maintainers [1] project.

Please make sure to take ebuilds from the unreviewed developer Sunrise repository [2] rather than the -reviewed one, since the latter has not been updated for over a year. While at it, please note that:

1. Adding a package to Gentoo requires declaring yourself as an active maintainer for it. All bugs regarding the package will be assigned to you, and you will be expected to maintain it.

2. Some packages may not be suitable for addition anymore. While there's no strong rules that would prevent you from adding a package, it may be a bad idea to add old-unmaintained packages that will shortly result in a large number of bugs reported with no solution. If that is the case, please close the bug as RESOLVED/OBSOLETE to make it easier to find packages worth adding.

3. Some of the bugs were already closed as WONTFIX/OBSOLETE/... while the relevant ebuild was kept in Sunrise. If you disagree with the original decision, you still can add the ebuild via proxy-maint.

4. Pleaes note that many of the Sunrise ebuilds are old and may be buggy. If you decide to move them, please make sure to update/clean them up. The proxy-maint team will also review your ebuilds, therefore making sure they land in Gentoo in good quality.

Once again, thank you for your contribution. We hope that you will still want to contribute to Gentoo, through proxy-maint or otherwise.
