Created attachment 268475 [details] i3-3e-r2.ebuild (new package) i3 is an improved dynamic tiling window manager, completely written from scratch. Key features of i3 are good support of multi-monitor setups (workspaces are assigned to virtual screens, i3 does the right thing when attaching new monitors), XRandR support, horizontal and vertical columns (think of a table) in tiling. Also, special focus is on writing clean, readable and well documented code. i3 uses XCB for asynchronous communication with X11, and has several measures to be very fast. Please be aware i3 is primarily targeted at advanced users and developers. Homepage: http://i3.zekjur.net/
Homepage changed to http://i3wm.org/
Here are some ebuilds with up-to-date information that I maintain in my overlay. http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=user/sardemff7.git;a=tree;f=x11-wm/i3
Hm, why you guys don't want to update ebuilds in Sunrise? http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/sunrise/wiki/HowToCommit Along with git one, since "sirius developing" now takes place in `tree` branch rather than master

I installed i3-3e_p3 from official portage tree. i3-wsbar was not functional, it missed AnyEvent/I3.pm: Can't locate AnyEvent/I3.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.12.3/x86_64-linux /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.12.3 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.3/x86_64-linux /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.3 /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.2/x86_64-linux /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.2 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/5.12.3/x86_64-linux /usr/lib64/perl5/5.12.3 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/bin/i3-wsbar line 11. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/i3-wsbar line 11. I found an AnyEvent-I3-0.70.0 ebuild in the perl-experimental overlay, which fixed that. So I think the AnyEvent-I3 ebuild should also be pushed in the official tree; otherwise a hint in pkg_postinst would be nice.
Forgot to close that bug... *i3-3e_p3 (12 Jul 2011) 12 Jul 2011; Kacper Kowalik <xarthisius@gentoo.org> +files/i3-gentoo.diff, +i3-3e_p3.ebuild, +metadata.xml: Initial import. Ebuild based on extensive work done by Ondrej Sukup (mimi_vx) <mimi.vx@gmail.com> and Andre-Patrick Bubel (moredread) <code@andre-bubel.de> in sunrise overlay. Fixes bug 267476 (In reply to comment #5) > I installed i3-3e_p3 from official portage tree. i3-wsbar was not functional, > it missed AnyEvent/I3.pm: I've asked perl team to move it to g-x86. Should be fixed shortly. I'll update the ebuild with the rest of perl deps when that happens. If I fail to do that in acceptable time please file a new bug report. Thanks!
