Description Vova 2018-09-10 23:55:06 UTC
Sorry for advertising my own package, but I think it's nice addition to gentoo family!

It has 650 stars and 130 closed issues at github, simple Qt4/5 UI, fuse wrapper and scriptable cli tool. It's even working with Lumia phones! No limitation on file sizes and blazingly fast comparing to the other MTP implementations.

I'd like to see/install stable version in my favourite distro I'm using at home (Gentoo if you didn't get it lol).

I'm sorry I didn't attach ebuild, I don't have much experience writing those. I could do if noone volunteer though. 

Thanks!

Hello Vladimir. Given the fact you are the author and you have the best overview of it, it would be probably best to write your own ebuild (we can help of course). If you have any question, feel free to ask (here or irc).

Wow! This tool is really working great. Thanks for making it. 
Please find attached my current work-in-progress ebuild.
I might add it to portage soon but first wanna collect some feedback.
Comment 3 Vova 2018-09-11 20:43:10 UTC
I've just tested your ebuild with and without qt/fuse flags, and it worked perfectly!  (renamed to -3.5, the latest release)

additionally, you can force qt version with -DDESIRED_QT_VERSION=5 argument in mycmakeargs, so it won't bother finding qt4.
Also I could not find qt4 ebuilds anymore, did gentoo stop supporting these?

Thanks for your work!
