1.5.0 has been released. Also, I'm proposing an ebuild for the Freevo-Weather plugin which requires freevo >=1.5.0. I've made one however it has a flaw. On the Freevo page to download it which is http://freevo.sourceforge.net/addons/index.php?&direction=0&order=&directory=Plugins the download url is http://freevo.sourceforge.net/addons/index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=/Freevo-Weather-0.8.tar.gz which, when put in the SRC_URI you end up with a file named index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=%2FFreevo-Weather-0.8.tar.gz instead of the proper Freevo-Weather-0.8.tar.gz. I'm assuming if it were added to portage it'd just have the properly named file put on the mirrors
Created attachment 36093 [details] Freevo-Weather ebuild. Here's the ebuild for the Freevo-Weather plugin.
- ebuild header missing
- ebuild header missing¹ - IUSE="" missing [1] http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/handbook.xml?part=2&chap=3
Created attachment 79633 [details] updated ebuild nice to see this finally got some attention...I've fixed the above mentioned issues as well as making the SRC_URI something realistic, as the previous one did not work at all. I also removed python from the dependencies (freevo already depends on many things which depend on it, it's redundant) The actual tar.gz file will need to be put up on the gentoo mirrors for this to ever work right as the link on the homepage does not play well with wget...speaking of which here is that link: http://freevo.sourceforge.net/addons/index.php?action=downloadfile&filename=Freevo-Weather-0.8.tar.gz&directory=Plugins&
Does this work with Freevo 1.7.X or Freevo 2.0 ?
Freevo-1.7.4 has a weather plugin built-in. It seems the same plugin since it has the same name (both gets activated by plugin.activate('weather') ). Maybe this bug is obsoleted?
indeed, this can be closed now since the plugin is built in.
