"Cornice is a cross-platform image viewer written in Python + wxPython + PIL (Python Imaging Library). It has been inspired by the famous Windows-only ACDSee." From: http://web.tiscali.it/no-redirect-tiscali/agriggio/cornice.html Cornice 0.3.4 depends on: wxPython >= 2.4 Python >= 2.2.1 PIL >= 1.1.2 - http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/ It has a nice list of features. I'm especially interested in these (quoted from the homepage): - Image loading from zip archives (still limited: currently it handles only "flat" archives, i.e. without a directory structure) - Full-screen view - Good keyboard navigation Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

This is a really old bug!! ;) I didn't know much at the time (not that I know a lot now), had just started using Linux... Finally wrote an ebuild for this...
Created attachment 41303 [details] cornice-0.3.4.ebuild Working just fine
Created attachment 41304 [details] cornice-0.4.ebuild The ebuild works well but, for some reason, the program doesn't... maybe someone familiar with python can provide a patch. It would be nice to have the newer version in portage.

Thanks for the ebuilds. I've been letting this one sit because it hadn't been updated in quite a while and the author doesn't seem so sure of its stableness, no setup.py script etc. 0.5 is out so I'm testing it now. As for your ebuild, all the *.py files should go in /usr/lib/python${VERSION}/site-packages. If someone upgrades/downgrades a major version of Python, the updater script wouldn't find cornice, so it wouldn't get re-emerged and wouldn't run with the new version of Python. Also portage wouldn't clean up *pyc files if they aren't in site-packages if someone unmerges it. If it seems stable after I test it I'll fix that.
Rob, version 0.6 seems to be out. Are you still working on the ebuild? Was 0.5 stable? Maybe you would consider adding this program to portage or maybe you would consider posting your ebuild here if you're not going to do that.
The latest version requires wxGTK 2.5, which was hard-masked and will be removed when 2.6 stable is released this week when I'll test cornice again and add it if its stable enough.
Sorry this was neglected for so long but it has a few problems, I'll report upstream. On some files it displays them fine but pops up a dialog box with just a message like: 4194959523L I'll attach the latest ebuild I have for it here.

Re-assigning to maintainer-wanted, as is the custom these days for new ebuilds without a maintainer, for someone to pick up if there's interest. It is not out of the question that the wxwindows herd will pick it up, but there are lots of other things to do before this can be considered.
Either find a maintainer, or if you want to maintain it yourself, feel free to reopen and join project sunrise, details here: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/sunrise Thanks. WONTFIX.
