Description Raymond Jennings 2011-12-30 01:23:17 UTC
I tried to install epsxe to discover it wasn't in the portage tree.

I did some checking and found out that mr bones had removed it due to a missing dependency.

On further inspection, however, I found that the allegedly missing version 1 of gtk+ was in fact still present in the tree.  Further testing showed that gtk+ 1 even successfully emerged.

Given that the cited reason for removal of epsxe doesn't actually apply I move that the epsxe package be reinstated.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  emerge epsxe
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
package not found

Expected Results:  
successful emerge

The guys in the irc support room advised me to file a bug.

gtk+:1 is deprecated.  We're not supporting it anymore.

please drop the plugins too, so we can maintain the emulator and dependencies at sunrise-overlay.
