"Veromix is a mixer for the Pulseaudio sound server." has some nice features, kmix doesn't have. would be great to see this package in tree. http://code.google.com/p/veromix-plasmoid/source/browse/trunk/Changelog
Created attachment 297843 [details] ebuild complete ready for sunrise done
Created attachment 297923 [details] revised ebuild veromix-plasmoid-0.13.1.ebuild
Created attachment 301481 [details] veromix-plasmoid-0.15.1.ebuild Updated ebuild. Does not work for me. Maybe someone with more python knowledge grab this.
When you say it doesn't work, what do you mean? Not building? Missing something on install? I bumped it to 0.16.1 in my local repo and it emerges successfully, though I haven't poked at the package itself yet.

It fails to work in the same way when compiled and installed from the latest git sources (The distribution zip doesn't include some things needed for actually compiling, such as the file Messages.sh, but as far as I can tell all that make does is creates some files in other languages). In other words, the issue isn't just with the ebuild, there's something about this package that doesn't seem to get along with the normal Gentoo KDE setup. Will investigate further.
Installation path seems to be wrong, changing from: /usr/share/kde4/apps/plasma/plasmoids/veromix-plasmoid/ to: /usr/share/apps/plasma/plasmoids/veromix-plasmoid/ seems to fix the issue with veromix (for 0.16.1!).
This is available in GHNS itseems. That makes it not required
take a look at GetHotNewStuff (which is the dialog when you right click -> Add Widgets -> Get new widgets) and search for veromix. If that is the plasmoid you want, there is no real need for an ebuild then
(In reply to Theo Chatzimichos from comment #9) > there is no real need for an ebuild then I have to strongly disagree. Veromix has a dependencies that are not installed by default: RDEPEND=" $(add_kdebase_dep plasma-workspace python) dev-python/PyQt4[dbus] dev-python/pyxdg media-libs/ladspa-sdk media-plugins/swh-plugins media-sound/pulseaudio " If you just install it as a user, it doesn’t work. I tried, and got an error about missing libs. Using an ebuild provided by the KDE overlay instead solved the problem. It’s one of the few not completely pointless idiotic “bling” plasmids. So if you leave it out, you can as well leave out plasma. Because what’s the point then anyway?
Reopening then, so this does not get lost.
Plasma-4 is not in tree anymore, upstream will not port to Plasma-5.
