this is a nice filemanager using gtk2, its very light and functionel. i suggest app-misc/tuxcmd, this ebuild works perfectly and could very well be added directly into portage
Created attachment 20746 [details, diff] tuxcmd-0.5.70.ebuild this is the ready ebuild

Source is available for tux commander, though a gtk2forpascal is needed.
Tux commander is a kylix project, it's not possible to compile it with fpc( from tuxcmd's main developper). I suggest to commit the binary based ebuild.
Created attachment 27238 [details] Ebuild for tuxcmd-bin-0.4.101 this is just a up to date ebuild, with correction on the ebuild's name,dependencies and some cosmetics changes.
Binary only, similar to other packages already in Portage... I'm not interested in maintaining this one.

Comment on attachment 38418 [details] tuxcmd-0.5.39.ebuild updated ebuild to new development version and added installation of plugins
When will this ebuild be in portage?
@abcdefg: I guess you read Comment #6 ?
Sorry, I'm afraid I don't understand. @Brandon Hale: Similar to what packages in portage? I don't know much about ebuilds and portage but if the ebuild works why not add it?
I just saw this filemanager on a screenshot and wanted to try it. I also don't understand why this ebuild should not be added to the portage tree. People that don't like binary should not use it, but all other should have the chance to. It can't be that the missing interest of one developer makes this fail. What a distri would gentoo be when it didn't include binary only like realplayer, acroread, nvidia....?
I agree. This piece of software is written in Kylix so it won't gain anything from recompiling (here are no arch specyfic optimalizations). Creating a source based package wouldn't make sense. IMHO this should go to portage long time ago.

Created attachment 128552 [details] Offical ebuilds for Tux Commander Atttached you can find official ebuilds for the latest stable release (v 0.5.103). From now on every new release will come with updated ebuilds. Feel free to include it in general Portage tree. There are three ebuilds available: # tuxcmd-bin - main application, binaries only (still requires Kylix to compile, will change for 0.6.x releases) # tuxcmd-modules - modules built from source (C, C++) # tuxcmd-modules-bin - binary modules (use when troubles compiling from source)
Reopening, and reassigning to maintainer-wanted..
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.

tuxcmd 0.6.x now require freepascal, 0.6.50 was released on 2008-10-03, and project is actively developed. It has support for vfs and uses gnome's new gvfs, has support for archive browsing, it is the only file manager I found that can do this (besides krusader for kde and mc which I still use). Now, I know this is a really old bug but you still have official ebuilds with each release and this is no longer -bin app... My guess is that maintainer would need only to check new releases and new ebuilds (if maintainer likes this kind of file managers).
