Mondo is reliable. It backs up your GNU/Linux server or workstation to tape, CD-R, CD-RW or NFS partition. In the event of catastrophic data loss, you will be able to restore all of your data [or as much as you want]. I suggest sys-apps/mondo but currently this is used by mondo-daemon (not related to mondo at all). that's why I have designed this ebuild to be put in sys-apps/Mondo until the name issues are solved. mondo depends on mindi, newt and buffer previously submitted.
Created attachment 2112 [details] mondo-1.43 (new package)
Created attachment 2120 [details] changed install dir, changed newt dependeny gentoo goes by FHS. Mondo now does too (install into /usr/share, not /usr/local/share). As I changed newt to Newt this dependency had to be changed in Mondo aswell
Created attachment 2203 [details] Mondo-1.43-r1.ebuild
LL, These are yours to handle, if you want them. Seems like a really interesting thing
Created attachment 2322 [details] Mondo-1.45.ebuild this is the latest ebuild for new mondo 1.45. it needs newt-0.50 and mindi 0.65
Created attachment 2357 [details] Mondo-1.45.ebuild mkisofs is obsolete. changed dependency to use cdrtools. this ebuild makes previously submitted Mondo-1.45.ebuild obsolete (why can't I use this function?)
passed lintool
Created attachment 2376 [details] Mondo-1.45.ebuild - passed libool
ok, I've got the dependencies, but I realLLy dont' want to put this in under such a name as Mondo since we havea mondo... I'm going to post to the dev mailing list about this and see what we can come up with.
I vehemently oppose the idea of separating packages on the casing of their names alone. It is probably smartes to rename the existing mondo to mondo-daemon then ask as gently as possible that the upstream people rename their release files accordingly (hey, it just might work ;P). [Also, this mondo mentions Gentoo on their home page where as mondo-tools don't; guess who we'll prefer ;PP]
i would suggest naming Mondo mondo-rescue, as it's named on freshmeat -Dan
I am agreement with Dan
mondo-rescue is fine with me
Created attachment 2516 [details] mondo-rescue-1.45.ebuild don't forget to up it into sys-apps/mondo-rescue ;)
ok, thanks for all the discussion, mondo-rescue it is :) In future when submitting ebuilds, it is preferable to include a changelog as well, also the proper format for the header of ebuilds can be found in skel.ebuild (include copyright and and license information...) thanks!
