Description DrSlony 2018-01-01 17:04:34 UTC
Please bump Geeqie to 1.4.

Thank you for the bump request. 
You can help the maintainer with further information:
Does a simple bump [1] work on your system? 
Chances are high, because a first look on the bump revealed only small changes.

btw: Does upstream distribute its website in the very large folder 
geeqie-1.4/web/
of the 1.4 tar ball?

Comment 2 DrSlony 2018-01-01 22:39:21 UTC
I switched from Gentoo to Sabayon due to using a slower laptop, but I hope this helps.

Renaming the ebuild to geeqie-1.4.ebuild, removing the patch and compiling using
ebuild geeqie-1.4.ebuild merge --skip-manifest
worked, but installing failed due to not finding "ChangeLog".

Geeqie-1.4 uses GTK2 by default. I don't know what 1.3 used, but the git version used GTK3 by default for a long time. They reverted to GTK2 a day before the release.

"Does upstream distribute its website in (...) the 1.4 tar ball?"
Yes, it seems they do.
Comment 3 DrSlony 2018-01-01 22:41:35 UTC
Seems the "ChangeLog" problem is an upstream issue, and I see you already know about it, but linking here for reference:

Comment 4 Bernard Cafarelli gentoo-dev 2018-01-01 23:00:15 UTC
Indeed, the bump should go in soon in tree, animated gifs support by itself is worth it! I will probably keep gtk2 by default as recommended by upstream

For reference, the bundled website in the tarball has an upstream issue now:

The ebuild also needs a new USE flag to control the dependency on media-video/ffmpegthumbnailer via --disable-ffmpegthumbnailer. This feature allows generating thumbnails for video files and coupled with another preferences level option allows to easily start playback in a separate window.

Thanks, sorry for missing your contribution! I added USE=ffmpegthumbnailer in 1.4-r1 (and updating my config to enable this)
