smtm is at 1.6.4, I've got this to install using the 1.4.0 ebuild currently in portage, with the following changes: 1) The line: S=${WORKDIR} needs to be removed, the current src pkg is packed properly. 2) The pkg requires the perl mod. Finance-YahooQuote, which currently isn't in portage, but is in CPAN at 0.17. I saw the note on not submitting CPAN ebuilds/using g-cpan.pl so I'm unclear how to integrate this part of it into the .ebuild without creating a separate ebuild for it. In ~x86 at least, smtm-1.4.0 is kinda broken, Not sure what the problem is, but 1.6.4 works for me.... Not sure how popular the pkg is as it may have gone neglected. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: after installing Finance-YahooQuote via g-cpan and removing the line as described above I have a working smtm-1.6.4
it's very neglected -- go ahead and submit an ebuild for the perl module, since it is a required dependency.
All I did was take the existing ebuild for 'Finance-Quote' and change the name/number in there (and it works :p) dunno if the depends are actually correct or not (they seem sensible though.) Finance-YahooQuote-0.17.ebuild ------------------------------------------------ inherit perl-module MY_P=${P/.3_/c-} S=${WORKDIR}/${MY_P} CATEGORY="dev-perl" DESCRIPTION="The Perl Finance-YahooQuote Module" HOMEPAGE="http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Finance/${MY_P}.readme" SRC_URI="http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Finance/${MY_P}.tar.gz" LICENSE="Artistic | GPL-2" SLOT="0" KEYWORDS="x86 ~amd64 ~ppc sparc alpha" DEPEND="dev-perl/libwww-perl dev-perl/HTML-TableExtract" mydoc="TODO"
you might want to check against the ebuild that g-cpan.pl creates. I believe g-cpan.pl puts those into PORTDIR_OVERLAY/dev-perl
add 1.6.5, with deps
