viewcvs, if at all possible, should use webapp.eclass. See for example viewcvs-0.9.2_p20030430-r2.ebuild Also, since you are committing things in web-apps territory, please a) add yourself to the web-apps herd b) use webapp.eclass so as not to create extra work for others Best, Renat
Created attachment 45181 [details] viewcvs-0.9.2_p20040831-r1.ebuild Converted the 0.9.2_p20040831 ebuild to use webapp. Tested it myself, and it seems to work.

Ohh, I was told it's better to install stuff in htdocs than hostroot, so I made the ebuild install viewcvs in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/viewcvs (instead of /var/www/localhost/viewcvs).
Created attachment 45534 [details] separate apache configurationfile for viewcvs I would like to have viewcvs-apache configuration similar to modules.d/00_apache_manual.conf. Also an example docroot would be nice.
I committed two new ebuilds using the webapp eclass yesterday. I still need to tweak a few things, but please check to make sure its working properly. Also, I don't think its best to install the configuration/runtime files in an htdocs directory. The only thing that needs to be visible is the cgi's. I'll see about adding some kind of apache config or at least add it to the post install txt.
Lance, thanks for taking over. I'm not really webapp savvy ;-)
No problem. Sorry I took you off the bug accidentally. I'm planning on adding some stuff for the mysql-side of things it can do, but I just don't have the time to add it right now. I mainly wanted a better ebuild for infra purposes ;)
The two ebuilds in testing are now webapp compatible
