I'm probably going to just drop this package. The code base is very hard to work with. If you want to suggest an ebuild okay, but I'm not going to spend any time on this.
just for the record: https://github.com/Tribler/tribler/releases/tag/v6.5.2 Upstream could clean the source package on github from unnecessary files...

I'm not sure what you mean. I've wasted a lot of time on this poorly coded packages and really don't want to waste more. If you want to suggest a working ebuild I'll consider it.
Created attachment 449832 [details] New ebuild for tribler v6.5.2
Created attachment 449834 [details, diff] Patch to fix desktop menu
Created attachment 449838 [details, diff] Patch to adhere to the XDG standard
The old ebuilds actually present in the Portage's tree don't work any more because Tribler requires python2 dependencies that the ebuilds do not honour; fixing those old ebuilds is just a waste of time (IMHO), so I suggest to remove them (or hard mask them) and keep my new ebuild only. So far I tested Tribler v6.5.2 for a few weeks, and used only a few of its features, and it seems to work correctly. However, more testing is required for the advanced features.
this is also needed to stop relying on obsolete python eclasses
@blueness, I presume you wouldn't mind a proxied maintainer taking this over? @Toffanin, would you be interested in maintaining this package via the proxy-maint project? If yes, would you consider submitting a pull request with your ebuild and adding yourself + proxy-maint project at [1]? [1]:https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pulls

Created attachment 476230 [details] Fixed tribler-6.5.2.ebuild dev-libs/libsodium dependency was missing as well so I added it. It is working for me now.

Created attachment 527116 [details] tribler-7.0.2.ebuild Version is up to 7.0.2 Here is an updated ebuild for it. This requires dev-python/meliae-0.4.0 I just submitted a new ebuild for that in Bug 408217.
Created attachment 527118 [details, diff] tribler-fix-desktop.patch New patch updated for 7.0.2

removed
Why is this being removed? I provided a working ebuild for the current version....
Sorry for the communication issue... I had lots of bugs at the same time and... The removal is because it needs some more work... The main blocker is that for adding the new package that it needs as a dependency we need that package to have a maintainer. Anyway, if you send all to proxy maintainers, you could proxy maintain both packages https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Proxy_Maintainers But for this ebuild: 1. It should use eapi6 if possible 2. I am not sure about if it solves bug 640888 3. fdo-mime eclass is deprecated in favor of xdg.eclass 4. Inherit the full eutils.eclass only to call menu entries functions is a bit overkill: you have desktop.eclass for that. They are exactly providing the same functions and, in the future, all will need to inherit desktop.eclass directly for that What I recommend you to get this solved faster: - I would open a github pull request adding the new package that is needed by this and the updated ebuild and metadata with you as new maintainer. - You can also add a link to the PR to "See also:" field here in the bug I guess they (proxy-maint maintainers) will reply to you soon, please remember to provide one commit per file: one for the new package, other for adding the new version of tribler... Thanks
Not sure if I will have time to deal with it myself for the next couple months as work is going to keep me mosyly away from the computer. If anyone else wants to step up feel free. If not I will try to find the time at some point.
Removed from the tree in April.
