Description Ragas 2011-11-19 18:16:36 UTC 
This adds an ebuild for the lightdm greeter used by ubuntu.

It compiles and installs correctly but I haven't fully tested it yet since I found that it has a runtime dependency on gnome-settings-daemon-3 (which I'm not willing to install again right now).

It also depends on the Ebuild in bug #391031

Reproducible: Always

Actually, there is also a nice looking webkit greeter.

CCing: hwoarang for options
Comment 3 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-12-08 21:05:59 UTC 
Interesting package. I have no time to maintain it right now but I can act as co-maintainer if needed. Feel free to pick it up or CC proxy-maint@ if Ragas is interested in maintaining it
Comment 4 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-03-05 21:09:20 UTC 
I will take it
Comment 5 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-03-24 10:41:21 UTC 
This requires valac-0.15 which we don't have. So we can't support this ebuild at the moment. Maybe later
Comment 6 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2012-03-24 10:51:40 UTC 
Maybe gnome team could try to get a newer vala in tree if you want (I think other people requested it but we were waiting for anything in the tree needing it)
Comment 7 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-03-24 12:12:08 UTC 
Well yeah that would be nice
Comment 8 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-03-27 03:01:03 UTC 
vala-0.16.0 is now in portage.
Comment 9 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-04-01 12:30:44 UTC 
This seems to require dev-libs/glib-2.32 as the following definitions are missing from 2.30. I am not sure if they are available to 2.32 to be honest

@gnome. Is there an ETA for a newer glib?
Comment 10 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2012-04-01 13:33:27 UTC 
glib-2.32 is already in the tree, but I think will take some time until it's unmasked (a tinderbox run is needed for it as will probably break a lot of compilations, no idea if flameeyes has already being pinged about that)
Comment 11 Nikoli 2012-06-03 14:53:49 UTC 
glib-2.32.3 is unmasked now.
Comment 12 Fabian Köster 2012-07-27 08:39:44 UTC 
Had anyone success in running unity-greeter-0.2.8 ?

I am getting 

ERROR: Settings schema 'com.canonical.unity-greeter' is not installed

Fix keywords.
