Bug 48857 – gnome-light should be updated for gnome 2.6

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Chris Carlin 2004-04-24 01:40:18 UTC]

(Copying right off of bug 31454):

gnome-light, a package which should contain only the base components you need to run a gnome-system, is outdated, all dependencies are on gnome-2.4.x


And then the comment: gnome-light should be simultaneously updated with gnome meta from now on

gnome has 2.6 versions in portage, so gnome-light should also.

Yes, this stuff is all still masked, but shouldn't it be there anyway?

[Comment 1 foser (RETIRED) 2004-04-24 07:42:17 UTC]

not really... sort of.. we can just push it out when 2.6 goes stable, it doesn't make a difference for stable users. The ebuilds get tested in gnome-2.6.ebuild.

[Comment 2 Matteo Giordano 2004-05-20 03:45:16 UTC]

I'd like to have gnome-light-2.6 even masked, because I could try the new GNOME and send feedback here without having to install the whole stuff.

Please :-)

More or less just a version bump.  This ebuild is based on
gnome-light-2.4.2.ebuild and gnome-2.6.1_rc1.ebuild.

Also including this gnome-light ebuild based on v2.6 so that those who want to
stick with x86 packages can test this.	This ebuild is based on
gnome-light-2.4.2.ebuild and gnome-2.6.ebuild.

gnome-light-2.6 added & x86 stable

teedog, thnx for your submission, but i just used a stripped down gnome-full meta.
