Description Bel Zébute 2004-07-01 13:20:53 UTC
GPuTTY is a PuTTY clone, intended to be used in a Gnome environment.
It stores and launches SSH sessions (the old version was multi-protocol capable).
It's not a terminal emulator.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
It will generate a whole bunch of errors, but it build.  The ebuild is crude since the tarball does not include any configuration script.

Initial ebuild

I advise you, this program is not very elaborated yet.	I was quite deceived
with it.

First, altough it is stated you can put a xterm=<terminal> in /etc/gputty, it
works only with xterm (I wished for gnome-terminal but it's no go).

Then, I can't connect to any of my bexes because they all use ssh2 while gputty
seem to use only ssh1.

I have no clue if you can put parameters in the /etc/gputty file, I will try
later.

Never the less, I much better like this simpler approach than the terminal
emulated one made with the actual PuTTY ebuild which (me think) suck badly.

Nuf said.

you fail to mention what version it is

based on your comments i'd say it's not ready yet for portage
