Description Fabio Bonfante 2010-06-21 20:44:38 UTC
Gloobus-Preview is an extension for the Gnome Desktop Environment designed to enable a full screen preview of any kind of file. It’s based on Apple’s “Quicklook”.

A really interesting feature!

It would be great to see support for this application as well as for nautilus-elementary.
Comment 2 Walter Da Col 2010-11-13 07:42:05 UTC
I'm working on it.

It's nearly complete and soon (i hope) it'll be on sunrise overlay.

I'll release it with an extension for nautilus (space hotkey and menu), so it doesn't need nautilus-elementary to work 

Comment 3 Fabio Bonfante 2010-11-13 13:27:37 UTC
great news! tnx!
Comment 4 Fabiano Francesconi 2010-12-01 23:30:06 UTC
Along with it another ebuild has been added to properly integrate it in the system.

That is the extension for Nautilus that Walter himself wrote just for integrating it better with Nautilus.

This is the link for the project hosted on github: https://github.com/DaKTaLeS/nautilus-gloobus-preview

Forgot to mention. Of course after they are reviewed by a sunrise-developer (:

Gnome has sushi which fits this purpose already. Removing gnome from CC.

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.
