I've done an ebuild for the recent released CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor 0.1 Gnome applet. Test on my machine works perfect, but maybe some dependency forgotten (its my very-first ebuild). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: Works Expected Results: Continue working...

very early in development, no priority.

I think it lacks a >=gnome-base/gnome-panel-2.2 RDEPEND.
Created attachment 26763 [details] gnome-cpufreq-applet-0.1.1.ebuild Yes, I forgot it, thx for the advice. The app works perfect for me :)
Created attachment 28368 [details] gnome-cpufreq-applet-0.1.2.ebuild New release. Works perfect. Maybe it can go to portage with gnome2.6?
Created attachment 34119 [details] gnome-cpufreq-applet-0.2.ebuild Ebuild for new 0.2 release of applet. This version requires GTK 2.4 and libpanel 2.6, relevant changes made to ebuild. (There was also a previous version 0.1.3 which still only required GTK 2.0 and libpanel 2.2.)
New version (0.2.1) released and still working fine. No changes to previous ebuild other than file name.

already using it for weeks now and working fine. would be really nice to have this in portage.

gnome-cpufreq-applet-0.3 is released, but has a QA (security) issue: "QA Notice: Security risk /usr/bin/cpufreq-selector. Please consider relinking with 'append-ldflags -Wl,-z,now' to fix."
0.3 just came out. http://carlosgc.linups.org/files/gnome-cpufreq-applet/gnome-cpufreq-applet-0.3.tar.gz
It would be nice the ebuild should have some flag to set the --disable-frequency-selector parameter during compile. I'd rather leave the cpu scaling to cpudyn. Unfortunally I'm not good enough with ebuilds yet to fix that myself. :-/

Sorry for duplicating this bug report... but perhaps bugs reports for ebuilds should have the actual package name as their title (or part of)... It would be easier to find! :) Anyway, I hope to see this soon in portage... 0.3.1 seems to be mature enough to give it a try... Thanks!
Just to add a little more weight to these comments - I've got it running as well (from the 0.3.1 ebuild) and it works like a treat. Further, the newer versions allow you to set CPU speed as well as just display it. It seems like it is stable enough to be in portage - what is stopping it moving ahead at this point?
going to close this as it has been merged into gnome-applets and will be available with the 2.10 release.
