Created attachment 370060 [details] Nightingale (binary distribution) 1.12.1 ebuild This ebuild is for the latest version of the Nightingale audio/video player, 1.12.1. It differs from bug #316443 in that this ebuild is a "binary" version. It simply unpacks and installs the latest tarball. The other ebuild actually does some level of compilation. ... This is much easier to maintain and may go into portage more easily. I still need some help on getting the icons to appear correctly in the KDE menu. (I don't know about GNOME.) I can search for the entry using a string (like, "night"), but the ebuild does not install an entry in the "Multimedia" or "Internet" categories, which is my intention. Any help would be appreciated. FWIW, for simplicity, this ebuild has the same dependencies has the "source" version, which may not all be necessary. It has some improvements on parsing the release number out of the ebuild name. I used the firefox-bin.ebuild for an additional reference.

BTW, I don't mind maintaining this ebuild, if someone could help me first fix the menu entry problem. ... Thanks!

The ebuild for compiling nightingale does this in src_install: make_desktop_entry ${PN} "Nightingale" ${PN} "AudioVideo;Player" Take a look: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=316443
