Description Dennis Schridde 2014-11-12 06:28:53 UTC
Would be great to have an ebuild for the µTox Tox client: https://github.com/notsecure/uTox
There are no published releases, though. Upstream creates binaries from snapshots of unmarked revisions: https://wiki.tox.im/Binaries
Comment 1 Dennis Schridde 2014-11-12 06:56:33 UTC
P.S: µTox works reasonably well now and is quite stable. It is able to run good quality video calls where SIP based tools or Skype fail due to firewalls.

This ebuild works for me.  Based on youbroketheinternet overlay but with new official SRC and some fixes.

I'm interested in this as well. If you bump the ebuild to EAPI6, I'll look at getting it included in the tree.

Same for this one.

Simple EAPI rise to 6. Merges fine.

Simple rise EAPI to 6 works.
Comment 7 Dmitry Derevyanko 2017-01-14 01:12:42 UTC
Haven't tested all functionality, but simple run, chat and calls are working. 
In ebuild I left some parts untouched but they not figured in configure script (like dbus).

Good deal. It looks like the settings are still useful (or will be). I've done a bit more work with the submitted to get it up to date.

Did anyone want to be listed as the maintainer on this? We can have it handled through proxy-maint. Otherwise, I'm okay with being the maintainer on it.

Instead of awkwardly naming the package with the capital letter, it can be kept all nicely lower case, and changing the source directory to something like:

S="${WORKDIR}/uTox-${PV}"
