Bug 53229 – (New package) gnome-ppp-0.2.1.ebuild

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Tom Martin (RETIRED) 2004-06-07 08:37:32 UTC]

Attached is gnome-ppp-0.2.1, a GNOME 2 frontend for WvDial 1.5x. From the author's homepage:

"GNOME PPP is a modem dialup tool designed to integrate nicely into GNOME 2 Desktop Environment. It is very similar to GPPP dialup utility created for GNOME 1 and KDE equivalent, KPPP. Since it is a graphical frontend for excellent WvDial, very little knowledge is needed to setup dialup connection using GNOME PPP. It features ease of use, auto detection of your modem and connection monitoring. It is distributed under GPL, version 2, so you can download it and use it for free."

net-dialup seems like the no-brainer ;)

I'm afraid this sounds a bit nuts, but I'm not on dialup. A few people requested this package for Portage in #gentoo, so I ebuilded it. I've reports that the ebuild works from others on that channel, but I've no way of checking myself. It should be fine though.

Thanks very much.

Why bother? Mine revbumps fine with no changes.

Also, your ebuild lacks... a lot of things. It doesn't work.

ebuild should use the gnome2 eclass

Now with added gnome2.eclass goodness. Hope it does the trick.

Patch was nearly as big as the ebuild and just more time consuming for whoever
commits.

Can i take care of this bug? I'm a dialup user. I use gnome-ppp day by day :)
Martin, gnome-ppp is 0.3.5 already. Could you make a new ebuild for it?

[Comment 9 Spider (RETIRED) 2004-07-11 23:22:13 UTC]

for all I see, pclouds, go ahead.  We are low on manpower, ping me if you want a review of it before it goes in, but the last build looks quite good.

 (will balk on repoman due to Gentoo Technologies -> Gentoo Foundation )

[Comment 10 Nguyen Thai Ngoc Duy (RETIRED) 2004-07-13 07:57:27 UTC]

Added 0.3.7 to portage (it's basically this ebuild)
