Bug 692718 – www-client/next - Next browser - Be productive on the Internet

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Francesco Turco 2019-08-22 09:40:21 UTC]

Next is a keyboard-oriented, extensible web-browser designed for power users. The application has familiar key-bindings (Emacs, VI), is fully configurable and extensible in Lisp, and has powerful features for productive professionals.

The Next browser has been renamed to Nyxt:
https://github.com/atlas-engineer/nyxt/issues/754

So we should replace www-client/next with www-client/nyxt.

nyxt browser ebuild

This ebuild needs use of "network-sandbox" because it has a lot of lisp dependencies.

shouldn't the ebuild depend on net-libs/webkit-gtk

[Comment 6 Hadrien Lacour 2021-07-28 19:57:00 UTC]

Here's a working ebuild with the needed libposix:
https://git.sr.ht/~q3cpma/portage-overlay/tree/master/item/www-client/nyxt/nyxt-9999.ebuild
https://git.sr.ht/~q3cpma/portage-overlay/tree/master/item/sys-libs/libfixposix/libfixposix-0.4.3.ebuild

Won't maintain it right now, as it's too immature for me (can't even change the UI font, and probably no bitmap font support).
