0.13.1 is a development cycle release, that requires >=evolution-data-server-3.33.2 with USE=eds (which you have not updated accordingly in your ebuild), so we won't be adding that anytime soon. 0.12.1 is another matter though, and was on my lower priority TODO list. You could take a stab at that, if you want. Don't use gnome2.eclass with meson at all, get SRC_URI from gnome.org and most of the boilerplate from xdg.eclass, with gnome2-utils manual calls if need be for any glib schemas or other stuff. vala files touching probably makes no sense either anymore, as meson doesn't pregenerate them, so it'll be all built anyways. src_test of yours can't work with meson. I suggest taking a peek at some other meson using gnome package, perhaps one that uses vala too (tracker comes to my mind immediately, but that's complex, there are many others by now that are better examples). intltool is unlikely to be still necessary with a meson port (but there are very few exceptions where a meson.build file actually calls intltool-merge or something). Basically this needs a lot of work, and 0.12.1 instead then please. This is especially useful if you want to learn or help with other stuff in the long term as well.
Thank you for your help. Would you be so kind as to put me in touch with someone who can look over my timeshift ebuild? I have a Bugzilla submission for it.
You could maybe formulate it as a pull request on github too, with a backlink to the bugzilla one, and also make yourself the (proxied) maintainer of it and submit the PR with that. Then the proxy maintainers team will look over it, but you'd have to maintain it yourself afterwards with their help (you being marked as the maintainer, receiving bug reports, etc). Look up gentoo proxy maintainers wiki pages.
I believe you mentioned elsewhere, that the main tree folks doesn't compile anymore, presumably with some newer stuff of something else from some overlay. Can you please elaborate on that, so we can be prepared for the main tree accordingly?
I created a pull request for Timeshift on github, and referenced the bugzilla one. Thanks for the suggestion. Of the main tree folks, I downgraded to dev-libs/glib-2.58.3-r1, dev-libs/gobject-introspection-1.58.3, dev-libs/gobject-introspection-common-1.58.3, dev-util/glib-utils-2.58.3, net-libs/glib-networking-2.58.0, dev-libs/json-glib-1.4.4::gentoo, dev-lang/vala-0.42.7, dev-libs/vala-common-0.42.7, gnome-extra/evolution-data-server-3.30.5-r1, dev-util/gdbus-codegen-2.58.3, and net-libs/telepathy-glib-0.24.1. That seemed to fix the issue. That said, I was able to get folks-0.13.1-r1 added to the gnome-next overlay, so it's improbable going forward that newer stuff will prevent folks from being installed. https://github.com/Heather/gentoo-gnome/commit/57a2b884d6033c967678773459301d6171d7d698 Thank you for your help by the way :)
folks-0.14.0 has been in tree and stable since Aug 2020.
