Description C W Rose 2013-02-14 12:38:45 UTC

gsview 5.0 has the advantage of not needing the Gtk 1.x libraries.  It's been
out a year or so, and it would be nice if an ebuild was available.  I've hacked
one for my own use, but I don't trust my ebuild-writing skills.

Will


Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
No ebuild

Expected Results:  
Perhaps an ebuild?

src/gvcnews.txt says:

---------------------------
Version 5.0 2012-01-17
---------------------------
All:
  Non-beta release.

X11:
  This code is temporarily removed, because it is being converted
  from gtk+-1.2 to gtk-+2.0 and is in a non-functioning state.

Linux/X11 is only available in older versions at present.
