These modules make it easy to write Gtk and Gnome applications using a natural, perlish, object-oriented syntax. I suggest putting these in dev-perl/
Created attachment 22856 [details] ebuilds for gtk2-perl, gnome2-perl and related
Try emerge sync'ing. Most of these were already added this morning. I kept to the cpan version rather than the sf.net version for stability's sake. Also, I see a few that aren't currently in portage. Perl modules are included to support other applications, not in and of themselves. Finally, we (or at least I) prefer that you do not include a tarball as an attachment.
Hi, just confirming. I sync'd my tree today and the versions included in this attachment are still not appearing in portage. gnome2-vfs-perl, glib-perl and gtk2-perl were still out of date. gtk2-spell was at the latest release version however.
Re: Michael Cummings' comment certain programs are now starting to require the newest gtk2-perl versions (a certain comic book viewer being one I'm using the most). if you're worried about binary compatibility, just add the newest revisions (gtk2-perl being 1.023 and glib-perl being 1.022) as masked packages, so those of us who need them can have access, instead of maintaining our own private ebuild set for things that really should be in portage.
Which portage package is the comicbook viewer? Just want to check some of the sub deps :)
there is no portage package yet, sadly, as I don't have the knowledge to make an ebuild that wouldn't suck. however, the app is located at http://elvine.org/code/cbview/ requirements are generally in the .pl file itself.
I have bumped the packages currently supported.
